Alaska Airlines has warned of ongoing flight disruptions after it grounded its entire fleet due to an IT outage on Sunday.
In a statement, the airline said: “At approximately 8 p.m. Pacific on July 20, we experienced an IT outage that resulted in a temporary, system-wide ground stop for Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air flights.
“As of 11 p.m. Pacific, the ground stop has been lifted, and our operations have resumed.”
It added: “As we reposition our aircraft and crews, there will most likely be residual impacts to our flights. It will take some time to get our overall operations back to normal. We apologize for the inconvenience and encourage guests to check the status of your flight before leaving for the airport.”
Newsweek contacted the airline and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for comment by email outside of regular working hours.
