PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- An issue with the system that creates flight plans is causing a "small number of delays" for United Airlines.
According to CBS News' Kris Van Cleave, the airline began experiencing delays with the system sometime before 6 a.m. ET.

Airline spokesperson Erin Benson said it is causing a "small number of delays," but there have been "no cancellations."
The airline is currently working on the issue.
