Title: BA cancel all short haul flights from Heathrow. 26/02/2022. Post by: broadgage on February 26, 2022, 08:53:15 Due to ongoing IT issues.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60533275 (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60533275) Is this a "normal" IT c0ck up, or perhaps a Russian cyber attack ? The timing does perhaps suggest the later though I am not aware of any actual evidence. Title: Re: BA cancel all short haul flights from Heathrow. 26/02/2022.

That's what happens when you outsource to the lowest bidder and make redundant scores of long serving and highly competent IT staff. The blame lies squarely with Tata Consultancy Services.
