Cyberattack Hits Hawaiian Airlines’ IT Systems, Flights Continue Undisturbed

Hawaiian Airlines, a subsidiary of Alaska Air Group, has confirmed that it experienced a cybersecurity incident affecting some of its IT systems. While the nature of the breach has not been fully disclosed, the airline described the situation as a “cybersecurity event.” This type of language is often associated with ransomware attacks, where hackers typically lock digital infrastructure and demand payment in cryptocurrency to restore access.

Despite the breach, Hawaiian Airlines reassured the public that flight schedules remain unaffected. “Our flights are operating safely and as scheduled,” the company stated. The airline also emphasized that steps have been taken to protect operational integrity and ensure passenger safety.
