The Airbus issue, flagged Friday, involved « intense solar radiation » corrupting critical flight data with their A320 plane. The problem is suspected in a JetBlue incident on October 30.
Airbus said that most of its fleet of 6,000 A320 passenger jets have received an update to fix a software glitch that could have affected flight controls.
Travelers had faced minor disruptions heading into the weekend as airlines around the world scrambled to push the software updates out to the widely used commercial jetliner. Airbus warned of the problem Friday with U.S. millions of passengers in transit for the Thanksgiving holiday, the busiest travel time in the United States.
