Prague airport back to normal operations after Friday's outage

All air carriers at Prague Airport affected by Friday's worldwide IT outage have resumed normal operations by Saturday morning, the airport’s spokeswoman told the Czech News Agency. However, she still advised passengers to keep track of their flights on the airport’s flight information website.

Twelve arrivals and 13 departures were cancelled at Václav Havel Airport Prague, while 83 arrivals and 113 departures were delayed on Friday after a mistake in a software update sparked hours-long outages in global computer systems affecting airlines, media and banks.

Among the Czech businesses and services hit by the outage on Friday were BENU pharmacies, the online prescription service eRecept and insurance company Allianz, one of the biggest in the country.
