    Nate Lombardi was one of the delayed travelers waiting at the Dubuque Regional Airport. He was flying back toDenver after a weekend visiting his family in eastern Iowa.

    "Set my bag up to be checked, and they said, 'Don't bother because your flight's delayed right now because thecomputer systems are down,' and they didn't really know when it was going to be back up," Lombardi said."Unfortunately, airlines have these things happen. Seems like it's always happening to you, but, I don't know, it's notthe end of the world for me."

    The American Airlines glitch impacted thousands of passengers.
