At least one Kiwi has been stranded following the computer glitch that caused numerous Delta Air Lines flights to be grounded for several hours. She turned up with her friend at the airport at midday, only to find her Delta Air Lines flight was cancelled at the gate. Delta said the computer glitch was the result of a power outage at its Atlanta hub. "The Delta team is working very, very hard to restore and get these systems back as quickly as possible. "The only thing we have had is an email saying we will get $200 off any future travel with Delta, which doesn't really help our situation."
