British Airways has apologised after a technical issue triggered a wave of flight delays across the US and the Caribbean.<\/p>

The airline said problems with its third-party flight planning supplier were behind the delays, as customers reported disruption in departing cities including Denver, New York and Miami.<\/p>\n

Writing on Twitter, passengers \u2013 including the British actor and model Liz Hurley \u2013 reported delays of up to 20 hours, with some complaining of a lack of communication from the airline.<\/p>
