Delta Air Lines has cancelled approximately 300 flights and paralysed its operations  due to a power outage impacting Delta systems worldwide.

Statement from the airline said ‎Delta operated 800 of its nearly 6,000 scheduled flights. While systems are improving and flights are resuming, delays and cancellations continued

The airline urged customers heading to the airport to expect delays and cancellations, adding that enquiries were high and wait times werelong.

“Our customer service agents are doing everything they can to assist. There may also be some lag time in the display of accurate flight status at delta.com, the Fly Delta App and from Delta representatives on the phone and in airports.

“We apologise to customers who are affected by this issue, and our teams are working to resolve the problem as quickly as possible,” the airline also said.
