        TCS are doing the doings

        A contract has been signed with TCS to be the supplier of some IT activities in British Airways, and BA has been in consultation with those IT staff affected."

        It added that it "would never compromise the integrity and security" of its IT services.
        How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

          [BA] added that it would never compromise the integrity and security of its IT services.
          Well that sounds a bit hollow now, doesn't it?

            But according to that paragon of truth and virtue it's a cyber attack:

            'It's carnage': British Airways computer systems crash across the WORLD after they are 'hacked' sparking chaos at airports with all flights from Gatwick and Heathrow cancelled and huge queues

            Wait a minute, maybe it's not


            The airline said it was 'experiencing a global system outage' and added it was 'working to resolve the problem as quickly as possible'. It was unclear whether cyber hackers could be behind the outage.
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                They did not say anything about reliability
