A number of major U.S. airlines said on Wednesday that the 5G wireless technology rollout was causing only minor disruptions to air travel a day after dozens of carriers scrambled to reschedule or cancel flights to the country over safety concerns.

On Wednesday, Verizon and AT&T rolled out their 5G service across the United States but agreed to temporarily delay its deployment near certain airports amid concerns from airline industry experts that the technology could affect flights.
