Flight Delays for VivaAerobus and Volaris in Puerto Vallarta Due to System Failures

Today, several VivaAerobus and Volaris flights to various cities in Mexico are experiencing delays due to a computer system failure. The Pacific Airport Group (GAP) has confirmed this information.

The disruption is caused by a global ‘blackout’ of Windows systems, triggered by a faulty update related to #CrowdStrike. Thousands of Windows machines are displaying the infamous blue screen, leading to a series of global issues.

The affected flights include VivaAerobus 1167 to Mexico City, Volaris 7507 to Querétaro, VivaAerobus 7351 to Santa Lucía (AIFA), and another VivaAerobus flight to Monterrey.

These flight disruptions add to a series of global problems impacting air traffic at various airports worldwide. Passengers on these flights have been informed of the situation and are being asked to remain patient as technicians work to resolve the issues as quickly as possible.

Puerto Vallarta and other affected airports are implementing measures to minimize inconvenience to passengers, including rescheduling flights and providing ground assistance. Travelers are advised to stay informed through the airlines’ official apps and channels for the latest updates on their flights.

This computer system failure highlights the importance of having robust technological infrastructures and contingency plans in place to avoid such inconveniences in the future.
