Delta global system outage.

[MikeD]

Apparently grounding all flights for an unspecified time.

"The airline said Monday on its official Twitter account that all flights are grounded because of a global computer system outage.

"Our systems are down everywhere," it tweeted in response to disgruntled customers. "Hopefully it won't be much longer."

Passengers on Twitter reported problems -- including the inability to check in or being stuck -- from airports around the world, including San Francisco and Athens. "

SWA was hacked with ransomware and didn't pay. Seems the hackers tried again.

Amazingly DL intends not to cancel any flights today. They'll just be pushed back into Q4 of 2016.

Or it was a power outage. Hackers sounds cooler though.

Time they update their systems. It goes down all the time. But for a few minutes, not this. Not a good day to fly.

I'm not buying that line of BS. You mean to tell me that DL, the third busiest carrier in the world according to IATA, doesn't have back up generators at OCC? Bull.
