JetBlue outage briefly grounds flights; Cayman service unaffected
Flight operations at US carrier JetBlue Airways were briefly halted early on 10 March after an internal technical issue prompted the Federal Aviation Administration to issue a temporary ground stop affecting the airline’s domestic and international departures.
Services to and from the Cayman Islands were not affected.
The FAA confirmed that the ground stop was requested by JetBlue at 4:39am and remained in place for about 40 minutes before being lifted once the issue was resolved. During that time, JetBlue aircraft were not permitted to depart, although flights already in the air were allowed to continue to their destinations.
