CNN- Hundreds of flights in the US were canceled this week as carriers work to recover from a global tech outage that caused massive delays and left travelers stranded at airports around the nation. Delta Airlines canceled over 1,200 flights into, within or out of the US on Monday, and over 9,000 were delayed, according to flight tracking site FlightAware. Delta passengers have been slammed by more than 4,400 cancellations since Friday, including more than 950 as of Monday evening, by far the most of any airline. The "largest IT outage in history" — prompted by a software update from cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike for Microsoft devices — impacted more than 8.5 million Windows devices worldwide, causing disorder at airports, outages for 911 services and challenges at health care facilities.
