delaying our flight to get more fuel, doubling our flight time with a new route, and the WiFi being down majority of the flight is peak @AmericanAir behavior

At @PHLAirport trying to get to @iflymia on @AmericanAir So far these are the excuses why we have not left.
1. System wide outage.
2. Bad weather at airport YESTERDAY.
3. Maintenance issues.

Love LOVE a three+ hour delay what I love even more is the @AmericanAir refund site being down
18d

Flight delayed over 3 hours and prob canceled, first cause they put fuel in the wrong tank, and now cause of a radar outage in Miami/San Juan. This is unacceptable @AmericanAir

Hey @AmericanAir what am I entitled to if my 2nd rebooking of the day after a cancelation is severely delayed? Can’t even get a meal voucher since the entire airport is shutting down around us.

This @AmericanAir Flight this Christmas Eve has been the biggest joke.
Initial delay of about an hour due to “technical issues” as American’s whole system was down
Can’t land in Dallas due to a thunderstorm, so we circled around Dallas for a while. 🧵 1/

TRAVEL DAY FROM ****
First, the @AmericanAir outage this morning and guess who had a 6AM flight out of O’Hare? We didn’t leave ORD until around 8AM once it was resolved.

Sources suggest the technical issue grounding all American Airlines flights may be related to a server outage. No confirmation yet. #AmericanAirlines #BreakingNews #TechGlitch

Apparently we have ground stop on Christmas Eve due to system outage of @AmericanAir . This is disturbing and no signs of any update. I am missing a critical appointment #frustrating #americanairlines

What’s more annoying than being stuck at airport because of @AmericanAir system outage? Listening to people on speakerphone or watching shows without headphones. I hope AirPods are on their Christmas wish list. @AmericanAir

Great job @AmericanAir! Christmas Eve, one of the biggest and busiest traveling days of the year and your system is down! You can't make this **** up!

@americanairlines how tfffff is your whole nationwide system down! Stuck in ohare!

Nothing like a Christmas Eve nationwide @AmericanAir outage grounding all their flights. Because people aren’t cranky enough. #bekind

Never flying @AmericanAir again. System-wide outage on Christmas Eve. What a **** show.
5m

Not a nationwide IT system outage for @AmericanAir so every single plane is grounded for an unknown time period 🥴 😩

Just had my connector flight to Dallas, TX deplane at Will Rogers World Airport as all flights for @AmericanAir have been grounded due to a system-wide outage. @OKCFOX

The American Airlines flights are all grounded due to software outage. Merry Christmas! ✈️🎄💰😎 @AmericanAir $AAL

Stuck on the tarmac. @AmericanAir having stayed wide outage. Merry Christmas…

.@AmericanAir can you please give an update on your nationwide outage? Sitting at @PITairport instead of in the air needing to get back home to catch a @united flight that will probably be on time 🤨

Gotta love a Christmas Eve morning @AmericanAir IT outage grounding all flights during this semi busy time of the year for travel.
5m

Rough travel day for @AmericanAir, especially on Christmas Eve. System wide outage has us stuck at the gate at PIT. Hearing AA planes elsewhere are grounded too. Waiting for updates on the next move.

Where are all my friends grounded from the @AmericanAir system outage 🙋🏼♀️

Leave it @AmericanAir to have a system wide outage today. Unbelievable.

Anyone flying @AmericanAir … airline wide outage…
5m

Why do I fly @AmericanAir ?
Christmas Eve and entire airline is down
5m

Morning just went to ****. On @AmericanAir flight to DFW. Just informed by Capt. that there’s a nationwide IT outage on American. Grounded our flight right before takeoff. Gonna be a rough day for Christmas travel.
5m

Fly @AmericanAir for the first time in ages and the whole system is down… back to delta and United I go
5m

Captain says @AmericanAir software outage preventing weight & balance calculations “company-wide” with no estimate on resolution. Flights unable to depart as a result. Not a good start to Christmas Eve travel!
