Global airlines race to fix Airbus jets; US reports little disruption

Global airlines scrambled to fix a software glitch on Airbus A320 jets on Saturday as a partial recall by the European planemaker halted hundreds of flights in Asia and Europe and threatened U.S. travel over the busiest weekend of the year.

Airlines worked through the night after global regulators told them to remedy the problem before resuming flights.

Airlines that said they had completed or nearly finished all their software updates on Saturday included American Airlines , United Airlines, Air India, Delta Air Lines , Hungary’s Wizz Air, Mexico’s Volaris , Air Arabia, Saudi Arabia’s Flyadeal, and Taiwan’s carriers. Many reported no impact on operations.
