FRANKFURT: Berlin airport is resuming operations but with significant delays and cancelations after black ice had grounded flights in the German capital earlier on Friday, the ⁠airport said.

Snow and freezing rain during a prolonged cold snap have disrupted flights, road and rail traffic in Germany.

Airlines also ⁠had to delay or cancel departing flights on Thursday as jets could not be de-iced due to rain that quickly turned into ice.

“BER Airport is resuming flight operations. However, significant delays and ⁠cancelations are still occurring. Airlines decide independently whether flights will operate or be canceled,” the airport said in a post on X.

“Please check your flight status regularly.”
