(Reuters) – Delta Air Lines Inc <DAL.N> said it had canceled about 25 flights on Thursday as operations return to normal following a power outage on Monday that hit its computer systems, leading to cancellation of nearly 2,000 flights.

A small fire at its computer center was partly to blame for the network failure, Bloomberg reported.

A company spokesman confirmed that “there was evidence of fire,” but added that he was not aware of any fire dept response.
