Alaska Airlines Grounds Flights Amid IT Outage

Alaska Airlines temporarily grounded flights nationwide Thursday after reporting an IT outage affecting operations, prompting the FAA to issue a ground stop at the airline’s request. The carrier apologized and urged customers scheduled to fly tonight to check their status before heading to the airport. Flights departing Seattle-Tacoma International Airport were not affected, according to the FAA’s latest advisory. It marks the airline’s second IT disruption this year; in July, a similar outage halted flights for about three hours. This is a developing story.
