Qantas Baggage System Failure Leads to Worldwide Delays

If you are flying on Qantas anywhere in the world today expect to have some delays:

ALL Qantas check-ins have been thrown into chaos, after the computer check-in system failed across the country and the world.

The Amadeus program used by Qantas to check in passengers went into meltdown at about 5pm across the network, the Herald Sun reports.

A Qantas spokeswoman said Amadeus was currently working to identify and correct the problem but until then staff would have to use manual procedures for check-in.

“There are delays because it takes longer to check in manually,” she said.

“We are working with Amadeus to rectify the problem and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

All Qantas flights across the country will experience delays checking in until the problem is fixed.  [Herald-Sun]
