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.
