All flights to major New York-area airports were halted this afternoon due to the coronavirus causing “staffing issues” at the New York air traffic control center by skleb1234
All flights to major New York-area airports were halted on Saturday afternoon due to the coronavirus causing “staffing issues” at the New York air traffic control center, according to a notice from the Federal Aviation Authority.
A trainee at the facility, in Ronkonkoma, New York, tested positive for coronavirus on Saturday, the FAA said. The original advisory issued by the FAA said flights already in the air were getting diverted or sent back to their airports.We have contacted local health authorities and we are developing a plan to quickly sanitize/clean the affected areas," the FAA said in a statement.
Key background: Other flights around the country have been delayed or canceled as the coronavirus shuts down travel and people stay indoors. Air traffic control towers at Chicago’s Midway International Airport and McCarren International Airport were both closed after technicians tested positive for the virus.
