TL;DR

A power outage at a data center near Southwest Airlines' Dallas headquarters caused a "technology issue" that delayed over 1,300 flights. The airline managed to continue operations until the issue was resolved, but many travelers expressed frustration on social media. This incident follows a major technology-related disruption in December 2022, which led to a $35 million fine for Southwest.
