  • Delta attributed the disruption to a connectivity outage in Detroit and said restoration work is underway.
  • Detroit Metro said the issue is limited to Delta operations, with other airlines unaffected.
  • Travelers faced long lines and halted check-ins as airport systems showed IT maintenance activity.
