In a tweet posted at 8:43 a.m., Spirit said the issue was affecting Spirit.com, the Spirit Airlines app and its airport kiosks, leading to delays."We have resolved a network issue between third party services that affected our website, mobile app and some internal applications," the airline said in a followup email."We apologize for any delays and inconvenience, and we’re now working our way back to normal operations.
By about noon Thursday, that figure had increased to to nearly 90% — with more than 3% of flights canceled. The glitch represents a worrisome start to the summer travel season as the U.S. airline industry seeks to avoid repeating the turmoil of last year when carriers were hobbled by delays and cancellations.
