Flights cancelled or postponed to a later date at Munich Airport due to heavy snowfall and freezing rain. Around 150 takeoffs and 160 landings scheduled for today's morning alone were cancelled, out of a total of over 770 flights between departures and arrivals. All flight and ground operations suspended. From midday, in case of improvement in weather conditions, operations could resume.
