American seems to be experiencing computer issues today, which have grounded flights nationwide. The cause of the ground stop is apparently "computer issues," though that's all we know as of now.

Can I ask for flying credit? Lol
Why don't you do your own research about the news before making a post. Only flights from Dallas, Miami and Chicago were grounded

Your disposition and sensibility are...sad. On the plus side, that gives you much opportunity for growth!

If AA maintenance are unable to verify certain maintenance requirements, that could ground the entire fleet.
Just a thought
Yahoo news is reporting that American launched baggage status tracking today. Could this be responsible?

@Bongo - the picture is there for content, not to actually be reflective upon today's events. Don't be dense...that's "lame."
I agree with Merman..... Bondo....lame. If you do not like Lucky's post then there is a simple solution. Stop reading his blog. You have all the power to choose.
