Airlines and security officials emphasize that while such sightings are rare, the potential risk to passenger flights requires serious attention.
00:00Very much. I'm Ukrainian and I'm very much concerned that now in the heart of Europe we can see drones flying out of nowhere and we have no means to prevent that or to fight that back for now.
00:30So my first flight was at 7 a.m. then it was postponed to, changed even, to 11 a.m. and now to 1 p.m. so I'm still waiting and my connections are also delayed so I'm missing my connections. Yes, this is the latest.
00:49The second flight got cancelled and we're booked on the third flight but we don't want to fly anymore so we're trying to reclaim our luggage but also that's a slow process.
01:07I just want to go home to be honest.
01:17I've been waiting for close to five hours.
01:32I understand regarding the drones but still, it's too much, too much.
01:39I've been waiting for 2,5 hours here in the airport.
01:50No one is occupied, no one tells us what we need to do.
01:56We can't even recover our luggage.
01:58We are going to stay to the hotel with no luggage.
02:01Look, we have no clothes, no clothes, no clothes, no clothes from here for the weekend.
02:06No one is occupied and everyone closed their chest and left.
