Delta has been uniquely affected by the global IT outage compared with other major carriers, who have since largely resumed normal operations. In a statement on its website Monday afternoon, Delta estimated that more than half of its IT systems worldwide rely on Microsoft Windows. <\/p>\n
Friday\u2019s CrowdStrike error, it said, \u2018required Delta\u2019s IT teams to manually repair and reboot each of the affected systems, with additional time then needed for applications to synchronize and start communicating with each other.\u2019<\/p>\n
It continued: \u2018One of Delta\u2019s most critical systems \u2014 which ensures all flights have a full crew in the right place at the right time \u2014 is deeply complex and is requiring the most time and manual support to synchronize,\u2019 it said. <\/p>\n
A Delta representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Social media has been filled with images of passengers stranded away from their destinations. An additional complicating factor has been coordinating flyers\u2019 luggage as they seek to rebook, reflected in a significant volume of Delta\u2019s social media team responses on X related to baggage issues. <\/p>\n
In a video message to employees on Monday, CEO Ed Bastian and Chief information Officer Rahul Samant provided an update on the situation.<\/p>\n
Bastian said the company is working around the clock to get its operation back on track, but it will take another couple of days before the worst is over.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday will be a better day than yesterday and hopefully Tuesday and Wednesday will be that much better again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
