American Airlines said a “technical issue” had delayed all of its flights in the United States. But the company began boarding flights again at around 8 am ET, airline spokeswoman Sarah Jantz told CNN.

American Airlines employees did their best.

Lots of people asking themselves this question, probably.

We're glad things seem to be back up and running without significant delays.

Excellent movie.

Here's hoping we've had our hiccup for the holiday season.
