    "Global airport chaos 'after computers systems crash' causing major disruption at check-in desks across the world

    Travellers are unable to check in for their flights with a number of major airlines, causing delays and long queues...

    Problems have been reported by passengers at London's Gatwick and Heathrow, and airports in New York, Australia, Paris, Washington, Singapore, South Korea and South Africa, among many other locations.

    Travellers said they were unable to check in for their flights with a number of airlines - including British Airways, Air France, KLM, Qatar, Qantas, Lufthansa and Southwest - after the systems crashed, causing delays and long queues.

    The problem involved Altea software used by more than 100 airlines, with the programme's creator, Amadeus, blaming the disruption on a network failure.
