The management of Air Peace said an IT infrastructure failure caused by a power surge disrupted its flight operations on Monday, resulting in delays across its route network.
In a statement on Monday, the airline said the power surge affected a critical server supporting its crew scheduling and flight planning processes.
The carrier said the incident led to delays on some flights as its technical team worked with service providers to restore the affected infrastructure.
“The disruption was caused by a power surge which impacted a critical IT infrastructure server supporting our crew scheduling and flight planning processes,” the statement reads.
“As a result, some flights have experienced delays while our technical teams work with our service providers to fully restore the affected infrastructure.”
Air Peace apologised to passengers for the disruption, saying it understood the impact the delays may have on their travel plans.
The airline said safety remains its priority and assured customers that efforts were underway to restore normal operations as quickly as possible.
“We expect the maintenance and restoration work to be completed today, after which flight operations will progressively return to normal,” Air Peace said.
The airline also advised passengers to monitor its official communication channels for updates on their flight schedules.
