The FAA says Southwest is resuming service after working through an internal technical issue that delayed flights Tuesday morning
Southwest Airlines is resuming departures Tuesday morning as they work through reported"intermittent technology issues."
The Dallas-based airline is responding to travelers on Twitter saying the technology issue led to a ground stop and that they hoped to resume operations as soon as possible, though they didn't say when they expected things to return to normal. At about 9:30 a.m. the Federal Aviation Administration tweeted the airline had asked to pause departures. Just after 10 a.m., the FAA said the airline had worked through an internal technology issue and that the pause on departures had been lifted and service had resumed.At 9:55 a.m., data from Flight Aware shows departure delays at Dallas Love Field are 27 minutes and decreasing with inbound flights being held at their origin until 10:45 a.m.
The delays come almost four months after the airline struggled to recover from a winter storm. The storm arrived just before Christmas and caused chaos across the airline industry, but Southwest took longer to recover than any of its rivals, as a crew-scheduling system was unable to keep up.
