Sitting in First Class on @United 452 at LAX. Grounded by computer outage. Flight Attendants getting snippy. Passengers upset. #Service?

Reports are coming in on Twitter about a nationwide United Airlines computer outage. Planes have been grounded across the country.
Is #United "Unimatic computer shutdown worldwide" affecting United flights worldwide or only my flight to Orlando?—

Nope, not just you.
5:45 am United flight to LAX still grounded due to "computer systems being down" #bluescreen #gettingoff—

I guess there's been a system-wide crash of the United Air computer system that does weight and balance? It is delaying my flight ATM.—

I hate United Airlines. Thanks for making me miss my connection flight and treating me like dirt. #justwannagohome—

Apparently, the outage hasn’t affected the airline’s access to Twitter. United just tweeted:
We're aware of a computer issue affecting some of our flights. We're working to resolve it. We'll update as we have more details.—
