Numerous passengers flying with British Airways early Tuesday are **t happy. An IT issue has caused global delays, leaving many stranded at airports for hours.*
The company stayed largely silent on its main Twitter account, but has apologized in reply to hundreds of customer complaints about late flights and inability to check-in.*
"We are sorry for the delay to our customers' journeys," the company an**unced (https://www.britishairways.com/travel/flightops/public/en_gb?p_faqid=5572&source=hp_disruption_banner) on its web page. "Check in may take a bit longer than usual, so we would encourage customers to check in online before they reach the airport."
