Delta Airlines planes are flying once again but travelers will still face delays and cancellations Tuesday.

  • More delays/cancellations expected Tuesday
  • Refunds and $200 in travel vouchers being offered
  • 1,000 Delta flights canceled Monday, another 2,900 delayed

The company is trying to recover from Monday's major technical glitch that delayed or canceled 3,000 flights that stranded tens of thousands of passengers.

The problems erupted after a power outage Monday at its Atlanta headquarters caused the airline's computer systems to crash.

For passengers, hardship from the Monday morning meltdown was compounded by the fact that Delta's flight-status updates weren't working either. Instead of being able to stay home, many passengers only learned about the flight problems when they arrived at the airport.

Delta's challenge Tuesday will be to find enough seats on planes during the busy summer vacation season to accommodate passengers whose flights were scrubbed. About 100 total flights are still cancelled, officials said, including a small portion at Tampa International and Orlando International airports.

The airline posted a video apology by CEO Ed Bastian. And it offered refunds and $200 in travel vouchers to people whose flights were canceled or delayed at least three hours.

For passengers, hardship from the early morning meltdown was compounded by the fact that Delta's flight-status updates weren't working either. Instead of being able to stay home, many passengers only learned about the flight problems when they arrived at the airport.

There were cancellations and delays always displayed on the board early Tuesday in Tampa and that continued through mid-morning. For Orlando on Tuesday morning, there are four cancellations and two delays. Dozens of people were already at the Delta counter before 4 a.m. attempting to coordinate travel plans.

Airlines officials are advising travelers to check online or call ahead before heading to the airport.

What to do if you are still delayed or canceled:

Delta has published a waiver for customers traveling on Aug. 8 through Aug. 12. The company said travelers will be entitled to a refund if the flight is canceled or significantly delayed. Travelers on some routes can also make a one-time change to the ticket free of charge.

In addition, Delta said it will provide $200 in travel vouchers to customers whose flights were canceled, or who faced delays longer than three hours.

Customers can complete a special form on the Delta website to receive the voucher.
