Alaska Airlines Restores Operations After System-Wide IT Outage, Warns of Residual Delays

Alaska Airlines has successfully restored its operations following a system-wide IT outage that caused a temporary ground stop for its fleet and Horizon Air flights on July 20. The airline confirmed that the ground stop, which began around 8 p.m. Pacific, was lifted by 11 p.m. Pacific, allowing flights to resume.

While the exact nature of the IT incident has not been disclosed by the carrier, the disruption significantly impacted its operations, with only a handful of flights in the air at the peak of the issue. Passengers were advised to check their flight status before heading to airports during the incident.

Despite the restoration of systems, Alaska Airlines has cautioned that there will likely be ‘residual impacts’ to flights as the airline works to reposition aircraft and crews. Travelers flying with Alaska Airlines are encouraged to monitor their flight status for potential ongoing delays or schedule adjustments as the airline normalizes its operations.
