No extra details were accessible on what caused the glitch.

"We just arrived and are astounded that its not pressed," said Diane Menditto, 66, a resigned instructor from Hackensack, New Jersey, on the United Airlines registration line at Newark Liberty International Airport. She said she and her sister-in-law were agonized over making their corresponding flight on the way to Calgary, Alberta in Canada.

United Continental Holdings Inc shares fell as much as 2.5 percent to $52.96 and were last off almost 2 percent to $53.29.
