Global flight disruptions occurred after Airbus warned of solar radiation risks to A320/A321 flight computers, prompting urgent software fixes.
Airlines in the Philippines and Japan canceled hundreds of flights after Airbus issued a global advisory requiring urgent software updates for A320 and A321 aircraft due to a risk that intense solar radiation could interfere with flight control computers.
The Philippines grounded 93 planes operated by three major carriers, disrupting at least 82 flights, while Japan’s ANA canceled 95 flights.
The issue, stemming from an October incident involving a U.S.-Mexico flight, affects roughly 6,000 aircraft worldwide.
Regulators including the FAA and EASA mandated the fix, which involves reverting to an earlier software version.
Most airlines expect to complete updates by Sunday, with safety emphasized as the top priority.
