All US flights grounded due to ‘extraordinary circumstances’
The Federal Aviation Authority has issued a nationwide ground stop for all US airports due to extraordinary circumstances affecting air traffic control systems, specifically impacting frequencies and radar capabilities.
The grounding, which also affects Canada, represents only the third such action in modern US history after 9/11 and a similar technical issue in January 2023. Approximately 45,000 flights operate daily in the US air traffic system, with 2.9 million passengers potentially affected by the disruption. #US #flights #aviation #breakingnews #flightdelays
