US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has confirmed that the government is closely monitoring technical issues at Frontier Airlines, which has been forced to ground all flights. The airline cited problems related to a Microsoft outage as the cause of the disruptions.
In a statement, Buttigieg stated, 'We are monitoring technical issues at Frontier Airlines leading to cancellations and delays across their network. Our department will hold Frontier, and all airlines, to their responsibilities to meet the needs of passengers.'
