The July 19 incident led to worldwide flight cancellations and hit industries around the globe including banks, health care, media companies and hotel chains. Delta, which said it has purchased CrowdStrike products since 2022, said the outage forced it to cancel 7,000 flights, impacting 1.3 million passengers over five days.

Delta said that as part of its IT-planning and infrastructure, it has invested billions of dollars “in licensing and building some of the best technology solutions in the airline industry.” CrowdStrike has questioned why Delta fared so much worse than other airlines and said it has minimal liability, something Delta rejected.
