Southwest Airlines found itself in hot water again with customers after a computer system failure resulted in a rare ground stop of all its flights on Tuesday.
found itself in hot water again with customers after a computer system failure resulted in a rare ground stop of all its flights on Tuesday.The Federal Aviation Administration ordered the ground stop while Southwest tried to figure out "data connection issues, resulting from a firewall failure.""We have a connector in Vegas that was supposed to leave at 9:45 a.m. Now it's pushed back to 10:31 a.m., and now it's leaving at 2 p.m.
It took the Walsh family three days to get back to the Bay Area. In Ft. Lauderdale, a ground stop and bad weather delayed their Nashville flight by six hours, which caused them to miss their connection. "You know, there's no flights. Everything was grounded. And then they say we can fly. But people were missing their flights because you couldn't hear what was going on over the speaker," said Denice Walsh.
