The rollout of the European Entry/Exit System (EES) has resulted in extended queues at various European airports during the summer travel period of 2026. This development has led to considerable congestion and longer processing times for passengers.

Travelers originating from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been notably affected, facing delays lasting several hours. These prolonged waits risk disrupting flight connections and schedules amid peak travel demand.
