The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced that it had lifted the nationwide flight suspension and allowed some departing flights to resume, following a complete halt that lasted several hours due to a failure in air traffic control communications equipment affecting airports across the United States.
The FAA said it had conducted comprehensive tests of its systems before authorizing the resumption of flights to ensure their stability and the reliability of continued operations. It also reaffirmed that the safety of air travelers remains its top priority.
The agency advised passengers to contact their respective airlines for the latest updates regarding their flights, according to a statement published on its official account on "X".
