United Airlines told CBS4 the computer systems were running normally on Monday morning but passengers should anticipate some additional delays because of the ground hold on Sunday.

More than a dozen arrivals at Denver International Airport continued to be affected Monday because of Sunday's glitch which affected pilots' ability to receive information prior to departure.

"I got a waiver for the cab, had two hair-raising cab rides and four, three hours of sleep," said United passenger Mary Brayton. "I have to be teaching a class this afternoon at 1 p.m. and I just hope I make it."

United apologized for the inconvenience and offered waivers to passengers who needed to reschedule their flight.
