RICHMOND (NEWS 1130) – Air Canada says it has resolved a computer issue that caused problems at airports and resulted in some flight delays earlier today.

That meant airport, online, and mobile check-in were not working. Passengers were instead being manually processed.

The Montreal-based airline warned in a travel advisory that it wasn’t able complete bookings or passenger check-ins. It’s unclear what’s caused the outage.
