全球科技停摆持续，导致美国航空旅行受到严重影响，第三天已有超过2500个航班取消，导致成千上万的乘客滞留。
What Happened: On Sunday, about 1,700 flights within, into, or out of the U.S. were canceled, and over 9,000 flights were delayed, according to FlightAware.com. Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) accounted for over 1,000 of these cancellations.

The airline attributed the cancellations and delays to "an outside vendor technology issue" and offered travel vouchers, waivers, and SkyMiles Program miles to some affected customers, reported CNN.
据CNN报道，该航空公司将这些取消和延误归因于“外部供应商技术问题”，并向一些受影响的客户提供了旅行凭证、豁免和SkyMiles计划里程。
Delta CEO, Ed Bastian, assured customers that the airline is working to restore operations. "Canceling a flight is always a last resort, and something we don't take lightly," Bastian said.
Delta的CEO艾德·巴斯蒂安向客户保证，该航空公司正在努力恢复运营。“取消航班始终是最后的手段，而且我们一直不会轻易采取这样的措施，”巴斯蒂安说。
Major airlines, including United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) and American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL), have reported service restoration, but further delays and disruptions are expected, the report noted.
根据该报告指出，包括联合大陆航空和美国航空在内的主要航空公司已经报告服务恢复，但是预计还将出现进一步的延误和不便。
Delta has suspended unaccompanied minor travel until Wednesday due to the outage. The U.S. Department of Transportation has deemed the flight delays and cancellations "controllable" and "attributable to the airline," requiring airlines to adhere to their customer service commitments.
由于这次停摆，Delta已经暂停未成年人的旅行至周三。美国交通部认为，航班延误和取消是“可控的”并且是“由航空公司引起的”，要求航空公司遵守其客户服务承诺。
