Gavin Gray: European correspondent discusses disruptive cyber attacks on European airports

Description

Cyber incidents continue to cause chaos across major European airports.

Dublin, Berlin, Brussels and London's Heathrow are thought to be experiencing cyber attacks, knocking out online baggage and check-in systems.

It's the third day of technical failures, with dozens of flights delayed or cancelled.

Europe correspondent Gavin Gray told Francesca Rudkin that the issue is with a widely-used system by Collins Aerospace, which allows airlines to use the same check-in desks and boarding gates.

He says things are going wrong and many airlines are having to use manual boarding and check-in with paper and pen.
