United blames ‘technology disruption’ for 1,000+ flight delays

الوصف:

United Airlines faced widespread flight delays Wednesday due to a technology disruption affecting its Unimatic system, which manages flight data like weight, balance, and timings. Over 1,000 flights were delayed as a result. The issue has been resolved, but residual delays remain as operations recover, The Hill has reported. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed the problem was specific to United and unrelated to the broader air traffic control system, with the FAA offering support to help clear the backlog.
