Newark, Philadelphia Airport flights: Arrival and departures impacted by TRACON equipment outage, FAA says

The FAA ordered ground stops at Newark Liberty, Philadelphia, and Teterboro airports following a TRACON equipment outage. This failure disrupted travel plans for thousands of flyers on Monday, halting departures and causing significant delays. Current reports indicate delays of 60 minutes in Newark and 45 minutes in Philadelphia, with expectations that these wait times will increase. Officials confirmed that the equipment outage is the primary cause for the operational disruptions across these three major aviation hubs.
