SEATTLE: US carrier Alaska Airlines grounded all of its flights after experiencing an IT outage on Sunday that impacted its systems, the company said, without specifying the nature of the outage.
&#8220;At approximately 8pm Pacific on Sunday (0300 GMT on Monday), Alaska Airlines experienced an IT outage that&#8217;s impacting our operations. We requested a temporary, system-wide ground stop for Alaska and Horizon Air flights,&#8221; Alaska said in an emailed statement to Reuters on Sunday evening.
The Seattle-based airline said there would be residual impacts to its operations throughout the evening, without providing more specific details.
The FAA did not immediately respond to Reuters&#8217; requests for comment outside regular business hours.
The FAA status page showed all destinations being impacted by the ground stop of Alaska&#8217;s mainline aircraft and Horizon&#8217;s ground stop.
Alaska Air Group maintains an operational fleet of 238 Boeing 737 aircraft and 87 Embraer 175 aircraft, according to its website.
In June, Alaska Air Group-owned Hawaiian Airlines said some of its IT systems were disrupted by a hack. Alaska Air Group said it was still determining the financial impact of the hack.
