Delta recovers from power failure, computer meltdown, but all still unstable
DELTA Air Line, recovering from a power failure that led to a shutdown and the cancellation of 1,500 flights, said that its computer systems were still unstable, reported Bloomberg.
"We're seeing slowness in a system that airport customer-service agents use to process check-ins, conduct boarding and dispatch aircraft," said Delta's chief operating officer Gil West.
A module malfunctioned "causing a surge to the transformer and a loss of power", he said. Though electricity was restored quickly, "critical systems and network equipment didn't switch over to backups. Other systems did. And now we're seeing instability in these systems."
