#  Delta statement on FAA nationwide ground stop 

Staff Writer

Nov 13, 2026 6:00pm

Delta teams are focused on taking care of our customers while an FAA-mandated nationwide air traffic control ground stop is currently in effect. No Delta flights are departing at this time and flights currently enroute will continue to their destinations. Customers should monitor their flight status on the Delta app or delta.com for the latest information.

We have [flexible options](https://www.delta.com/us/en/advisories/other-alerts/air-traffic-control-outage) in place allowing customers to change their flight at no extra cost.

Our goal is to safely resume departures when possible. We thank our customers for their understanding and our people for managing through the issue.

Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
