Due to “indefinite equipment failure”, all air travel in the New York area is down until further notice.
What is this, Iraq? Are we living in the third world?
My plane today from Florida to Newark was diverted to Virginia.
We spend BILLIONS as a nation on total bullshit, but can’t keep our air travel running efficiently.
@united UL273 bound for @EWRairport is now sitting on the deck in Albany with its flight crew likely going to time out . Just curious , how/when are we getting home?
UPDATE: An Amtrak construction crew accidentally cut into a fiber line in New Jersey which caused a telecom outage and forced FAA to pause flights in the Northeast.
Right now:
- Flights are resuming at LGA and PHL
- Flights into EWR, JFK, and Teterboro Airport are paused
This incident underscores the need for additional funding to modernize aging infrastructure and prevent disruptions like this in the future.
Follow @FAANews for updates.
Bottom line— a circuit that was in line to be replaced failed. The back up system uses a fiber line was severed in what appears to be a construction accident somewhere between New Brunswick and Newark in New Jersey. Approx 600 feet of fiber got ripped out and severed per FAA.
On the 25th anniversary of the September 11th Attacks, @SheriffGolden & #MCSONJ honor the lives of those we lost & pay tribute to the survivors, heroes & courageous first responders whose bravery and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Today & always, we remember and salute all.
So much has changed in the 25 years since 9/11/2001. But one thing will always remain the same : America will always rise again and remain the best country in the world. God bless America 🇺🇸
Hey, @Delta I'm not a customer, but some dude in a beat up minivan and cut off tee shirt showed up at our home at 3 am frantically ringing the doorbell and getting pissed off when we wouldn't open the door. He left someone's lost Delta tagged suitcase. What do I do?
