Spirit Airlines Resolves Computer Outage That Affected Flights Nationwide
The technical issues were also impacting the app and the company's airport kiosks
Spirit Airlines experienced a nationwide computer outage on Thursday, which was impacting the company's website.
The outage — resolved hours later — was also impacting the Spirit Airlines app and the company's airport kiosks.
The airline said it anticipated delays might continue and suggested passengers "please plan on arriving early."
The airline further advised travelers "check their flight status" before heading for the airport.
Spirit Airlines, which could eventually be acquired by JetBlue, caused fury among passengers in August 2021, when 40-percent of their flights were canceled in a single day.
Stranded travelers spent days in the nation's airports and were largely left in the dark about what was happening.
