Delta Air Lines is apologizing for cancellations worldwide after a power outage knocked out computers, but so far Vancouver's flights are unaffected.

YVR passengers are tweeting they are having no problems boarding and heading out on Delta flights this morning, despite grounded planes in other parts of the world.

Delta reported it is using a backup system in Vancouver that has allowed flights to continue.
