Some air travel issues and delays caused by the global technology outage may continue into Saturday.

The Microsoft outage caused major computer problems for airlines on Long Island and around the world.

Some kiosks at terminal A in LaGuardia Airport had signs Friday morning indicating that they were not working.

Farmingdale residents Daniel and Sophia told News 12 that they were traveling to Pittsburgh for a family party. Their flight was delayed by over three hours.

Under new federal rules, travelers can get a full refund for a cancelled flight. However, people must choose not to travel if the airline offers to rebook.
