Computer Problem Forces ANA Domestic Flight Cancellations

Japanese carrier ANA said it had been forced to cancel more than 100 domestic flights after a computer problem disrupted check-in and reservations systems.

"So far we have cancelled 116 domestic flights, which has affected 15,200 customers," said a spokeswoman for the carrier. International flights were operating as usual, she said.

ANA said its check-in and reservations software stopped working on Tuesday morning at 08:40 local time. Check-in terminals at airports began operating again just under five hours later, although the reservations system was still down, ANA added.
