Coincidence or Russian cyber attack?

Anyway if you're flying check the status 1st

Been down for a while I think. Was reported in the Guardian yesterday. Given BAs history of outages it's hard to say whether it's an attack or just SNAFU.

They’ve cancelled all short haul flights out of LHR until Sunday.

They’ve just announced another massive loss so let’s just call it a money saving exercise 😉

All BAs shorthaul flights today would have been pretty full. The 2 days after we banned Aeroflot, and Russia retaliated by banning us, ALL of our IT failed. More than coincidence IMHO.

Currently sat in T5 Heathrow waiting to fly out to the States. Fingers crossed they don’t start pulling long haul flights as well.

I take it you aren't with Vodafone then? Fot a comms/tech giant, it's painful

BA are (were?) saying it's a hardware failure.

Honestly, I find that more worrying than if it were a cyber attack.
