Denmark’s Aalborg airport has closed due to drones in its airspace, two days after the country’s main Copenhagen airport was shut over drone sightings that rattled European aviation .

Eurocontrol, which oversees European air traffic control, said arrivals and departures at Aalborg airport would be at a “zero rate” until 0400 GMT on Thursday due to drone activity in the vicinity.

Police for the Northern Danish city said drones had been observed near the airport and they were investigating further on site.

They said it was unclear if they were the same drones spotted in Copenhagen earlier this week, and they did not know who was controlling them.

A spokesperson for Aalborg airport said four flights were affected, he said, including two SAS planes, one Norwegian and one KLM flight.
