Disruptions continued hours after the technology company was making repairs to an issue affecting access to Microsoft 365
A widespread Microsoft outage is disrupting flights, banks, media outlets and companies around the world.
Escalating disruptions continued hours after the technology company said it was gradually fixing an issue affecting access to Microsoft 365 apps and services.
“Multiple services are continuing to see improvements in availability as our mitigation actions progress,” Microsoft wrote on X just before 1 a.m. Pacific.
Toronto Pearson International Airport and Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport both confirmed that the global outage is disrupting some airlines and that flight delays and cancellations are possible. They asked travellers to contact airlines directly for information.
Many people took to social media to say they had been affected by the outage, with some sharing that they had encountered the “blue screen of death,” which Microsoft refers to as Blue Screen errors.
