DENVER (AP) — Travelers flying through Denver International Airport may face some lingering delays because of a problem with its air traffic control software.

Fifteen flights had to be diverted away from Denver and other flights were delayed because of the problem Thursday morning. The problem lasted for about an hour and airport spokesman Heath Montgomery says the airport is working to catch up on flights that were delayed.
