Travelers at European airports are currently experiencing significant delays, with wait times reaching up to five hours due to the implementation of a new automated border control system. This system was introduced last autumn to streamline the entry process for non-European travelers arriving in EU countries. The extended wait times have raised concerns and complaints, particularly during peak hours.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has addressed these delays, emphasizing that the new measures aim to enhance security and efficiency at borders. However, there are ongoing discussions within the EU regarding potential improvements or adjustments to the system to alleviate the burdens on travelers. Authorities continue to evaluate the effectiveness of the automated checks and the challenges they have posed since their introduction.
