There was a massive southwest airlines IT failure compounded by weather issues over the weekend. This cancelled numerous flights but also snowballed into most of the southwest flights being delayed. We were lucky to return home. The news is only reporting weather delays yet for those at the airport this weekend...it was clearly larger.

If it is true that Netherland's and Italy's transport infrastructure were also down I wonder if Russian supported hackers are to blame.

Southwest has put something out about it so it's in the press/Twitter for sure.

It's been Russian hackers so many times last few years (Hunter Biden's laptop, Trump elections, etc...), it's a sure bet this time it's the same.

Nobody ever got fired for blaming Russians.

Their bad reputation is their own damn fault.
