“Just breaking. Posting this in a hurry for any one who has a flight today on Alaska Airlines.”

LOL! Resumed service two hours BEFORE your post.

“Out of an abundance of caution, we requested a ground stop for all Alaska and Horizon flights, which was instituted at approximately 7:30am PT. The issue was mitigated and the ground stop for Alaska and Horizon flights expired at 8:30am PT,” Alaska Airlines noted in a statement. “We have begun releasing flights. Residual delays are expected throughout the day. We apologize for the inconvenience and encourage guests to check the status of their flights on alaskaair.com or the Alaska App prior to heading to the airport.”

Yes. About an 1 or 2 after grounding them. I think it was lifted around noon Eastern.

They may have resolved the immediate issue but the effect of the issue is going to last all of today and into tomorrow.

A little off topic but has anybody else noticed that the face painted on the tails of Air Alaska planes resembles a smiling President Trump?

Maybe just my overactive imagination.

You bet I do. It's dishonest credit unions and fair banks.
