Passengers have reported delays, with many flights stuck on the runway and returning to the gate. The airline has advised customers to address ticketing and transfer issues through its channels. This incident follows previous disruptions in the airline industry, including a major outage affecting multiple carriers earlier this year and a significant system failure at Southwest Airlines two years ago.
