Dear reader, it’s been an interesting week. On July 19, 2024, a CrowdStrike outage knocked out a ton of infrastructure, including core systems for airlines; some had it worse than others, though. Notably, Delta didn’t recover as quickly as American Airlines or United, as they canceled 1,000 flights alone on the 22nd.
However, by Monday, July 22, 2024, things were mostly back to operational, and I was prepped for a United flight out to Columbus, OH, to attend the MLS All-Star Game. I never made it there, but my luggage did.
