Delta grounds US flights over computer problems
Delta Air Lines
Washington - AFP
Delta Air Lines, one of the largest US carriers, temporarily grounded its domestic flights in the United States on Sunday over a computer glitch that did not impact planes already in the air.
"Delta teams are expeditiously working to fix a systems outage that has resulted in departure delays for flights on the ground," the Atlanta, Georgia-based airline said in a statement.
"Flights in the air remain unaffected. Delta apologizes to customers for the inconvenience."
The Federal Aviation Administration said in an advisory issued shortly after 0100 GMT that the stoppage was due to "automation issues."
Last week, a computer problem forced United Airlines to ground all of its domestic flights for about an hour.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
