Some delayed flights as usual...




When we think about flights in airlines all around the world, we often end up realising that most of them are known for havins some delays that often make us stay a few more days than what was programmed at a certain place... Still, sometimes there are some natural causes.

US Airways said Thursday its computer system is returning to normal after a cut cable delayed about 100 flights.

The airline said that a fiber-optic cable was accidentally cut near one of its Phoenix data centers, affecting its flight dispatch and airport computer systems. US Airways said no flights were delayed for more than an hour because of the problem.

The carrier said its systems were coming back on line Thursday evening, but customers were advised to check with the airline about their flight's status.
