IT brings down BA and backlogs flights around the world

IT brings down BA and backlogs flights around the world

Due to IT issues at British Airways, flights in to and out of Heathrow and Gatwick Airports were seriously delayed. These delays echoed around the world as flights were back-logged and even cancelled. According to BA’s CEO Alex Cruz, the problem was caused by a power surge / power-supply and no cyber attack is thought to have been carried out. It’s pretty clear there will be in-depth investigations both by BA and likely a government inquiry as to why the national carrier was brought to a standstill.

During the worst of the outage, stranded customers were encouraged to seek updates on BA’s Twitter account.

The outage affected many systems including bookings, re-bookings, call-center, check-in, website and more. In short all of BA’s customer facing technologies seem to have been affected.
