United Airlines flights in Denver and nationwide were briefly grounded today due to a global problem with the airline’s computer system, according to Denver International Airport.
The problem temporarily impacted at least 35 flights that were trying to land at the airport, said spokesperson Stephanie Figueroa.
The Federal Aviation Administration announced the ground stop was lifted for the United States and Canada at 11:50 a.m.
