Delta cancels 800 more flights as it struggles to recover from tech outage

SUMMARY

Delta Air Lines has canceled over 800 flights as it continues to recover from a global tech outage caused by a defective software update. The outage, which began Friday, impacted systems running on Microsoft Windows and led to disruptions across various sectors, including airports and healthcare facilities. Delta had already canceled 1,200 flights on Friday and saw further cancellations and delays over the weekend. The issue has led to numerous complaints to the U.S. Transportation Department about Delta's handling of the situation. Delta CEO Ed Bastian has apologized and said the airline is working to restore full functionality. Other airlines and healthcare organizations have largely returned to normal operations.
