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.

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