Officials with the FAA said they continue to work closely with airlines as they work to resume normal operations.

“Ground stops and delays will be intermittent at various airports as the airlines work through residual technology issues,” according to the FAA. “Please contact the airlines for more information and monitor www.fly.faa.gov for real-time airspace updates.”
