FAA Ground Stop Impacts Flights
The FAA has issued a nationwide ground stop affecting all US departures, per the FAA status feed and ABC News, as air traffic control communications systems experienced outages. The advisory, issued at 20:53 UTC, holds all departures and manages inbound international flights on a case-by-case basis.
Flight N820JL is currently climbing out of Las Vegas McCarran International Airport at 6,750 ft, heading west, according to live aviation data. The cause has been attributed to frequency issues rather than a cyberattack or natural disaster, per ABC News and FAA status updates.
International flights are being managed on a case-by-case basis under the current advisory, with some departures at Los Angeles International Airport reported as of 00:40 UTC, per ABC7. The FAA has confirmed the outage is not due to a cyberattack or natural disaster.
The ground stop remains in effect, and no indication of resumption has been reported in recent updates from the FAA or major news outlets.
