Authorities cancelled all departing flights at the Hong Kong airport on Tuesday after pro-democracy protestors took over the terminals and crippled operations for the second consecutive day. Protestors reportedly blocked the main security gate by using luggage trolley to form a barricade. Earlier in the day, authorities had announced that check-in had been suspended at the airport.
