FAA cancels ground stop for JetBlue planes, flights to resume

LOS ANGELES () — JetBlue flights will resume after a nationwide ground stop had been canceled, the Federal Aviation Administration said in an advisory Tuesday.

“A brief system outage has been resolved and we have resumed operations,” the airline said in a statement.

An earlier FAA advisory said the airline had requested the stop.

JetBlue planes were unable to take off while the ground stop was in effect, but flights in the air could continue.
