Airlines expect U.S. operations to rebound as FAA investigates outage.
David Shepardson and Rajesh Kumar SinghWASHINGTON/CHICAGO -U.S. airlines said they expect operations to return to normal on Thursday, as the Federal Aviation Administration scrambles to pinpoint the cause of a computer outage that grounded flights nationally and to prevent it from happening again.
Major carriers such as Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines said they expected normal operations on Thursday. FAA officials said a preliminary review traced the problem to a damaged database file, but added there was no evidence of a cyberattack and the investigation was continuing.
"The modernization of the FAA will be expensive, and will be paid for through a combination of taxes on air travel that affect all carriers and efficiencies by larger airlines," brokerage Bernstein said in a note.
