在新泽西州纽瓦克自由国际机场和宾夕法尼亚州费城国际机场的设备故障导致航班停止后，美国各地的飞行员周一面临着旅行计划的大规模中断。
周一，全国有1000多架航班被取消，6000多架航班延误，纽瓦克和费城受到的影响最大。
联邦航空局局长布莱恩·贝德福德说，问题始于周一早上费城空中交通管制设施的电路爆炸。贝德福德说，当备用系统投入使用时，官员们发现新泽西州的备用线路被切断了。
为了改变费城的赛道，贝德福德说东北部的空域将暂时关闭。作为工作的一部分，地面停靠点扩大到包括纽约市的约翰·肯尼迪国际机场和拉瓜迪亚机场，尽管这些地方的空域后来已经重新开放。
官员们表示，更换费城电路的修复措施没有奏效，导致费城和纽瓦克机场的运营仍然暂停。几个小时后，交通部长肖恩·达菲（Sean Duffy）周一晚间更新称，电信线路已经修复，“东北部的所有机场运营都在恢复。”
“清除所有现有的延误需要一些时间，所以请向您的航空公司查询最新信息，”他在x。
停电在东北部和美国引起了连锁反应，转移了一些航班，取消和延误了其他航班。
联合航空公司在纽瓦克机场有一个枢纽，该公司周一晚上更新称，当天剩余时间不再取消该机场的国内航班。
“我们知道这次停机对我们的客户来说是一次重大的破坏，”联合航空在一份声明中说。“一旦问题得到解决，我们将努力让他们安全到达目的地，我们已经发布了旅行豁免令，让他们可以灵活管理自己的旅行计划。”
Flights resuming after equipment outage disrupts Northeast air travel： Duffy
Flyers across the United States are facing massive disruptions to their travel plans on Monday after equipment outages stopped flights at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey and Philadelphia International Airport in Pennsylvania．
More than 1，000 flights were canceled nationwide and over 6，000 were delayed on Monday， with Newark and Philadelphia hit the hardest．
The issues began when a circuit blew at a Philadelphia air traffic control facility Monday morning， FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford said． When the backup system went into place， officials discovered the backup line in New Jersey had been cut， Bedford said．
In order to change the circuit in Philadelphia， Bedford said the airspace in the Northeast would temporarily close． Ground stops were expanded to include New York City＇s John F． Kennedy International Airport and LaGuardia Airport as part of the work， though airspace at those locations has since reopened．
Hours after officials said the fix to replace the circuit in Philadelphia had not worked， leaving operations still halted at Philadelphia and Newark＇s airports， Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy updated Monday evening that the telecom lines have been repaired and ＂all airport operations in the Northeast are resuming．＂
＂It will take some time to clear all existing delays， so please check with your airline for the latest information，＂ he said on X．
The outage caused a ripple effect across the Northeast and the U．S．， diverting some flights and canceling and delaying others．
United Airlines， which has one of its hubs at Newark Airport， updated Monday evening that it was no longer canceling domestic flights at the airport for the remainder of the day．
＂We know this outage is a significant disruption for our customers，＂ United said in a statement． ＂Once it is resolved， we will work to safely get them to their destinations， and we have issued atravel waiverto give them the flexibility to manage their travel plans．＂
