The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated on May 20 that flight reductions at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey will remain in effect until June, following a series of equipment outages in recent weeks.
The FAA has issued an interim order limiting hourly arrivals and departures at Newark airport to 28 each—totaling 56 flights per hour—the same limits that were put in place after multiple air traffic controller equipment outages caused flight disruptions.
