Alaska Airlines flights have resumed after they were grounded for an hour Wednesday morning, the company said in a statement.

In its statement, Alaska said it had experienced an issue “while performing an upgrade to the system that calculates our weight and balance.”

All flights by Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air, which is owned by Alaska, were grounded from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. “out of an abundance of caution,” the company said.



The company asked those with reservations to check the status of their flights on alaskaair.com.
