The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced on Tuesday that, due to a computer issue, United Airlines has issued a nationwide ground stop (GS), adding that the company asked the agency to pause the airline's departures nationwide.
On the other hand, United Airlines revealed in their tweet that they are experiencing "a systemwide technology issue." "Flights that are already airborne are continuing to their destination as planned. We will share more information as it becomes available. Thank you for your patience as we work on a resolution to get you on your way as soon as possible," the company explained.
Soon after that, in the new post, the FAA said that the company has lifted the ground stop for the U.S. and Canada.
