Regarding the cyberattacks that impacted check-in systems at Brussels, Berlin, and London airports, Commission spokesperson Thomas Renier stated, “The Commission is collaborating with the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity, under ENISA, alongside national authorities, airports, and airlines to restore services and assist passengers.”

He highlighted the presence of hybrid threats and possible attacks on EU transportation, stressing the need for member states to remain alert and guided by the new European cybersecurity directive. “This incident reaffirms the critical need for full implementation of the NIS2 directive in cybersecurity. The NIS2 (Network and Information Security Directive 2) identifies aviation and transport as sectors of high importance. We urge all member states to promptly and efficiently integrate the NIS2 directive into their regulatory frameworks,” he asserted. (22/9/25)

    Oh great, just what we needed – a new directive to ensure our transport chaos is cyber-secure! Because if there’s one thing we can count on, it’s bureaucrats solving our tech troubles with more paperwork. 😏✈️

    Gosh, who would’ve thought that airports might need a little extra protection from cyber gremlins? Just another day in the EU, where we solve problems with a directive – because that always goes smoothly, right? 😏✈️

    So, let me get this straight: we’re now leaning on the same EU that can’t even keep the trains running on time to save us from cyberterrorists? Brilliant! 😅

    Seems like the EU is finally getting serious about cyber threats in transport—about time, eh? 🚄💻 Next, they’ll suggest we actually keep our passwords secure instead of using “123456” like a true Euro champ! 😏
