BREAKING: Air traffic stopped in Ireland due to radar issue

Share

All air traffic in the Republic of Ireland is stopped, except in Dublin, due to a radar issue.

Due to a Flight Data Processing System (FDPS) failure in Shannon (EISN/SNN), there is a zero-rate regulation. The restriction applies until 23:00 UTC (initially 22:00 UTC).

Dublin is the only airport in the Irish Republic that does not use Shannon’s Air Traffic Control and thus it remains open to the traffic.

EISN has complete radar failure.
Restriction is applied until 23h00 UTC
