The document which was intended for internal use only has been available to the public on the Cologne/Bonn airport website since November 2015, German media reported.

The 230-page plan contained not only instructions on what to do in case of a natural disaster and air accidents, but also provided detailed information on how to act during a terrorist attack, bomb threat and hostage situation, Deutsche Welle wrote.

Moreover, the document contained details about where passengers should gather in case of an emergency.

The secret plan was developed for the airport's stuff only, but has been publicly available for over five months.

The document was apparently published online by mistake and was removed from the website on Wednesday after German TV channel ZDF sent a request for more detailed information to the airport.

Airport representatives have yet to comment on the issue. However, a number of German journalists found the incident shocking. Taking into account the recent bombings at the airport in Brussels and the fact that the Cologne/Bonn airport is viewed as a possible target of Daesh terrorists, the situation is extremely shocking, express.de wrote.
