All Airports Are Ground Stopped Until Further Notice: FAA

0 November 13, 2026 21:42

"Balance of Power" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today’s show, Ray LaHood, former US Transportation Secretary, says he believes the nationwide FAA ground stop is more likely the result of an old, antiquated system failing than problems transitioning to new technology. LaHood says travelers should consider alternate plans because disruptions could continue even after the system is restored, and says major airports are prepared to handle the fallout.
