RavnAir canceled at least a dozen flights in Alaska on Saturday — at the peak of holiday travel — following what the company described as “a malicious cyber attack” on its computer network.

The cancellations affected around 260 passengers, company spokeswoman Debbie Reinwand told the Anchorage Daily News.
The regional carrier canceled all flights involving its Dash 8 aircraft until noon “because the cyber attack forced us to disconnect our Dash 8 maintenance system and its back-up,” the company said in a written statement.

The company is working with the FBI, other authorities, and a cyber security company, to restore systems.

An Alaska air carrier that suffered a cyber attack has experienced more disruption than initially projected, according to a company announcement.

The RavnAir Group on Dec. 20 experienced what it called a "malicious" cyber attack on its information technology network, Anchorage television station KTVA reported.
On Monday, the company announced the disruption was worse than initially reported. Restoration of systems could take up to a month, the company said.

Additional flight cancellations and delays are possible for the group's three airlines, RavnAir Alaska, PenAir and RavnAir Connect, the company said.
