FAA advisories · refreshed on load

Where the FAA is holding flights right now.

{{ allCount }} airports carrying most of America's domestic traffic. This shows which of them the FAA has an active delay program at, and the reason it gave. It does not show what share of flights are late, because the FAA does not publish that.

Want the gate-level picture? The live flight board shows every upcoming departure and arrival at a major airport, with real delays and cancellations.

Live FAA ground stops and delay programs are read directly from the FAA feed. When the feed can't be reached, no airport status is shown - a model is never substituted. Always check your airline's own status page before acting.
