A suspected cyberattack Saturday is still slowing down services at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac Airport) and all Port of Seattle operations.

“There’s currently no estimated point of return,” for affected services, Sea-Tac Airport spokesperson Perry Cooper said, opening the press conference. He reminded travelers to rely on their airline’s website, apps and other sources for information as the relevant services from the airport are still down.

Alaska Airlines, Delta and other major airlines who do not share counters in the terminal area are less impacted than airlines like Frontier, Sun Country and Spirit, Cooper said.

Some airlines 鈥� like the ones using shared working space at Sea-Tac Airport 鈥� are having to resort to using pen and paper to track baggage, as their companies have not brought in their own computers so they rely on airport’s, Cooper added.

“International is a challenge,” Cooper said to 成人X站 Newsradio before the press conference. This is because they share counters with other airlines, they have lower staff and they are having to handle baggage operations with handwritten notes.

Cooper said at the press conference Monday TSA systems are unaffected because they use independent systems from the port. He also confirmed to 成人X站 Newsradio there have been no issues or trouble with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and air traffic control.

Cooper says Sea-Tac Airport is working with federal agencies, including the FBI.

Trouble for travelers at Sea-Tac Airport

Some arriving passengers at Sea-Tac Airport are still dealing with issues getting their bags quickly after the suspected cyberattack. An airport official told 成人X站 Newsradio Monday the barcode scanner inside the conveyor belt system isn’t working, so extra staff are picking up slack.

Carousels in the baggage claim area were running Monday morning, but some of the information screens aren’t showing which flight goes where. So, families are listening for updates over the PA system and then they’re hurrying to the carousel.

A spokesperson for Alaska Airlines said staff was manually sorting over 7,000 bags, because “a majority” of checked bags missed their flights over the weekend, The Seattle Times reported.

Meanwhile, multiple Spirit Airlines customers said to 成人X站 Newsradio agents’ computers are down and they have been waiting at check-in for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Those people were probably about halfway to the front.
