Long security checks at Cologne–Bonn: What Mallorca travelers need to know
Why airport security checks are slowing down for Mallorca travelers
Security work at Cologne–Bonn is causing longer waits and can affect Mallorca connections.
Published: April 21, 2026
Answer
Why are security checks taking longer at some airports that Mallorca travelers use?
At Cologne–Bonn, new screening equipment is being installed, and that work reduces the number of lanes that can operate at the same time. Staff shortages at an external security company are adding to the delay. For Mallorca travelers, that can mean longer queues, tighter connections, and more stress on early flights.
