Flights Resume After Technical Glitch Triggers Delays For Several Airlines
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A technical glitch triggered delays for several airlines Monday.
The delays first popped up in Chicago, New York, Miami and Boston, then spread to Dallas, Atlanta, Detroit and Washington, D.C.
Southwest Airlines issued an international ground stop for about 40 minutes. It was lifted around 7:05 a.m.
