A massive computer outage has delayed United Airlines flights nationwide, stranding thousands of passengers for hours.
The airline tweeted this message, which offered little comfort:
We’re aware of a computer issue affecting some of our flights. We’re working to resolve it. We’ll update as we have more details.

But it updated with this message shortly before 11 a.m.:
Our system is up. We’re resuming operations for affected flights.

United has been plagued by computer issues in recent months. This is the third major glitch to affect United since June.
