Computer failure at British Airways violated 75 thousand passengers

The computer failure at the airline British Airways violated the plans of 75 thousand passengers. This was stated by the head of the company Alex Cruz, his words are quoted by Sky News.

He again apologized for the difficulties that the company's clients faced, and added that British Airways managed to achieve “certain progress” in the restoration of the system after a failure.

Cruise noted that the company is going to make 95% of all its flights, including all long -range flights and the bulk of the close flights from Kitrovo.

Previously, The Times, citing experts, reported that British Airways losses can be more than £ 150 million ($ 190 million), taking into account the payment of compensation for each passenger in the amount of 225 to 540 pounds. The Guardian estimates the company's losses due to a violation in the schedule of more than a thousand flights of 100 million pounds.

On May 27, British Airlines canceled all the flights from Khitrovo and Gatvik due to a global failure in the computer system, difficulties in the network lasting the third day. As Cruz said , interruptions in power supply were the cause of the failure. He rejected the option with cyber attacks.
