Major US airports reported delays after a system failure at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded flights on Wednesday.
The FAA said its Notice to Air Missions system (NOTAM), which issues essential notices to pilots and flight personnel, had failed. The federal aviation agency said it was working to restore the problem.
A spokesperson at Germany's Frankfurt Airport told DW that "there are not yet" any disruptions to flight operations for planes departing for the US, and that the outage has not yet impacted planned departures or arrivals.
