MANILA: The global outage of technology giant Microsoft has affected the system of budget carrier Cebu Pacific and AirAsia, but the operations of international carriers in the Philippines remained unaffected as of 4pm on Friday (July 19), according to a statement issued by the Manila International Airport Authority (Miaa).
Cebu Pacific itself confirmed the situation, saying it was experiencing “technical issues, reportedly related to technology provider CrowdStrike, which caused a global Microsoft system outage.”
