Amazon computer services offered a much more redundant system and they (Delta) didn't want to pay the money.

You can assume Amazon are pretty much switched on with systems.

So Delta are running a 20-25 year old system that if one hub goes down so does the rest. All the senior IT execs are former IBM. That sums it up of course.

On another positive note all the competition are doing really well from this total Fook up!
