The US air regulator extended the suspension of flights in the country for another half an hour.

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has extended the suspension of all flights in the country for another half an hour, until 9.30, but this does not apply to military and medical flights.

Earlier, the air regulator decided to postpone the departure of all domestic flights until 9 am.


The agency subsequently told CBS News that the suspension was extended until 9:30 a.m., but does not affect military or medical flights.


Earlier, the FAA reported a failure that affected the operation of the national air traffic control system. We are talking about a malfunction in the NOTAM alert system, which is responsible for sending real-time information to pilots about flight safety and restrictions.
