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 Nov 13, halted all US departures and managed inbound international flights case by case.
San Francisco International Airport (SFO) was affected as part of the ground stop, with travelers reporting delays and cancellations, according to SFGate. The FAA's Command Center cited communications outages in air traffic control as the root cause.
International flights departing from San Francisco, such as those from LAX and JFK, resumed by 00:40 UTC on Nov 14, per ABC7. The disruption affected travel between Canada, the UK, UAE, and other regions, with several airlines cancelling or delaying flights.
United Airlines restored its Venezuela route after a brief pause, though this is unrelated to the ground stop incident. The FAA’s actions were not linked to any cyberattack or solar event, as confirmed by multiple news outlets.
