Crowdstrike Update For Microsoft Windows Continues To Cause Chaos, Thousands of US Flights Canceled For Third Straight Day
The global tech outage continues to wreak havoc on U.S. air travel, with over 2,500 flights canceled for the third consecutive day, leading to thousands of passengers stranded.
全球科技停擺持續，導致美國航空旅行受到嚴重影響，第三天已有超過2500個航班取消，導致成千上萬的乘客滯留。
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.
發生了什麼：根據FlightAware.com的數據，在週日，約有1,700個航班在美國境內、境外或出境時被取消，超過9,000個航班被延誤。Delta航空公司佔了超過1,000個航班的取消比例。
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.
據CNN報道，該航空公司將這些取消和延誤歸因於“外部供應商技術問題”，並向一些受影響的客戶提供了旅行憑證、豁免和SkyMiles計劃里程。
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·巴斯蒂安向客戶保證，該航空公司正在努力恢復運營。“取消航班始終是最後的手段，而且我們一直不會輕易採取這樣的措施，”巴斯蒂安說。
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.
根據該報告指出，包括聯合大陸航空和美國航空在內的主要航空公司已經報告服務恢復，但是預計還將出現進一步的延誤和不便。
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.
由於這次停擺，Delta已經暫停未成年人的旅行至週三。美國交通部認爲，航班延誤和取消是“可控的”並且是“由航空公司引起的”，要求航空公司遵守其客戶服務承諾。
