Not many cancellations but the yellow on the chart shows the delays that are added to airlines struggling with problems of servers and computers. The pbadengers tell me that they started receiving SMS early this morning. Live reports from #Logan @ boston25 pic.twitter.com/c9S4JucwgX

A pbadenger on a JetBlue flight departing from Boston Logan Airport stated in a tweet he had taken a seat aboard a plane that was to take off at 7 am when it appeared that the blackout had occurred
We went up at 6:20 as usual – think the system has collapsed after that. The pilot stated that the ground crew was doing things by hand to try to get the planes off the ground. So by plane for an hour now. They kept us informed and gave us juice and water #JetBlue

This affects our entire flight system and we are trying to determine if that affects other carriers this morning as well. In the meantime, once the additional information is available, our airport agents will be happy to distribute it to everyone. -Rocky

Although it was not clear which system was experiencing a technical problem, a civil rights activist DeRay Mckesson tweeted that a Delta pilot told him that "the system that gives them the clearance documents" was down.
I'm on the run for a Delta flight and the pilot has stated that the system that allows them to keep the clearance documents is down and they are hoping to get a system update in 10 minutes.
