It was a frustrating morning for air travelers.

Just before 7 a.m. Southwest Airlines announced all flight at the Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport have been grounded.

WBOC reports that an airline official said this was the result of a computer glitch but added the company was working on the problem.

The company said that it knew this has caused a stressful situation this morning but thanked passengers for their patience.
