Canadian airlines are urging travellers headed to the US to check their flights ahead of time today after thousands of flights were delayed by a computer outage.
WestJet says six flights were delayed this morning due to problems at the U-S Federal Aviation Administration, but none were cancelled.
Meanwhile, Air Canada says it has put a goodwill policy in place for customers affected by the outage so they can change their travel plans.
The FAA issued a grounding order this morning for all departing aircraft due to a problem with what is known as the Notice to Air Missions System.
That order was lifted just before 9 a-m but some delays and cancellations continue.
