CHICAGO (NewsNation) — After a NOTAM computer system failure at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) caused a temporary nationwide pause in flight operations, the FAA announced that normal air traffic operations have resumed at all airports across the country.
The ground stop ordered by the administration has also been lifted.
Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said on Twitter, “FAA has determined that the safety system affected by the overnight outage is fully restored, and the nationwide ground stop will be lifted effective immediately. I have directed an after-action process to determine root causes and recommend next steps.”
