The situation regarding the nationwide flight suspension in the US remains unclear as to when it will be resolved. Currently, nearly 2,000 flights have been canceled and over 10,000 delayed. New York airports are advising passengers to check their flight status before traveling.
Progress on the case of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ordering a nationwide flight suspension continues, with the measure still in effect and travel disruptions spreading widely. According to flight tracking website FlightAware at 18:04 on Friday, 13 Nov 2025 GMT+7, 1,913 flights have been canceled and 10,494 delayed, with numbers expected to rise throughout the night.
However, the FAA stated that once air traffic control centers resume operations, some flights will be allowed to depart airports but must coordinate with the air traffic control command center beforehand.
Mark Wayne Mullin, US Secretary of Homeland Security, warned that resolving the problem could take time and there is no clear timeline for returning to normal service. He confirmed that so far, there is no indication the incident was caused by a cyberattack or connected to the earlier Microsoft system issues.
Meanwhile, John F. Kennedy (JFK) International Airport and LaGuardia Airport in New York City have issued advisories urging passengers to verify flight status with their airlines before traveling to the airports to avoid wasted trips due to delays or cancellations.
Several major airlines have begun implementing measures to assist affected passengers by allowing flight changes without fees under certain conditions.
