Flights were disrupted at Kastrup Airport in Copenhagen, Denmark on Friday (25 March) because of a technical failure.

The failure of an automatic landing system meant that aircraft could not land at the airport, and flights were diverted to the airports of Billund, Tirstrup, Aalborg and Sturup in Sweden, and to Hamburg in Germany.

Some aircraft were able to take off during the malfunction, but none were allowed to land as there was thick fog which restricted visibility.
