On Friday morning, July 19, 2024, major U.S. airlines including Delta, United, and American Airlines halted all flights due to a technological issue. This problem has not only affected airlines in the U.S. but also airports, banks, and broadcasting organizations across Europe and other countries, including Australia.
Media reports suggest that the disruption might be linked to an update attempt by the cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike on programs used worldwide, potentially causing widespread computer malfunctions.
The issue has led to operational disruptions not only at U.S. airports but also in the UK and other countries, causing several flight cancellations. The UK has also suspended some train services due to the problem.
Affected airports include Berlin Airport in Germany, Gatwick Airport in the UK, and Melbourne Airport in Australia. Both Google Cloud and Microsoft have acknowledged facing similar challenges.
