FAA Ground Stop Ends
The FAA ended a nationwide ground stop after about four hours and 35 minutes, per Bloomberg and The New York Times reports. The advisory, issued at 20:53 UTC on 13 Nov, held all US departures and case-by-case inbound international flights until 01:28 UTC on 14 Nov.
The ground stop was triggered by air traffic control communications issues, according to the FAA as reported by Reuters and PBS. No indication of a cyberattack or malicious activity was found.
Flight delays and cancellations continue into the morning hours, with nearly 5,000 flights cancelled, according to Business Insider. JetBlue cancelled most of its remaining flights, per the NY Post.
International flights from San Francisco were among those affected, as US airports began resuming operations after the advisory was lifted. The disruption had ripple effects across North America and beyond, including delays in Toronto and Montreal, as reported by stcatharinesstandard.ca and montrealgazette.com.
