The Egyptian Ministry of Civil Aviation said only 15 out of 609 flights scheduled to depart from Egyptian airports were affected by the global cyber outage on Friday 19/7/2024. In a statement published Friday afternoon, the civil aviation ministry said the GoNow system, which manages all airport-related check-in and boarding functions, was affected by the global cyber outage. However, the ministry clarified it activated alternative systems, which reduced delays to no more than two hours, adding that all Egyptian airline flights are now operating as scheduled. The minister of civil aviation was closely monitoring the situation from the main operations room of the civil aviation ministry to assess the repercussions of this global crisis and address any emerging issues, according to the statement. The ministry noted it is coordinating with GoNow until everything returns to normal. Source: State Information Service Egypt
