"Munich Airport in Germany was forced to close for the second time in two days on Friday, October 3, 2025, due to unconfirmed drone sightings, affecting over 6,000 passengers and leading to the cancellation or delay of numerous flights. This incident is part of a broader pattern of mysterious drone activity across Europe, including a significant closure at Copenhagen Airport in Denmark earlier in September 2025, which impacted thousands of travelers. Munich Airport Closure (October 3, 2025) The airport was temporarily shut down on the evening of October 3, 2025, after German air traffic control restricted flight operations due to unconfirmed drone sightings. The closure affected 17 flights that were unable to take off and 15 arriving flights that were diverted to other German and Austrian airports. The airport reopened at 5 a.m. on October 4, 2025, but a later statement pushed back the resumption of normal operations to 7 a.m..

The incident is currently developing, with authorities from the Bavarian state police, the Federal Criminal Police Office, and the domestic intelligence agency being contacted for comment..."
