FAA Lifts Ground Stop for DFW and Dallas Love Field Airports Amidst Flight Delays
An FAA ground stop has been lifted for Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Dallas Love Field Airport, though flights at both locations are experiencing delays.
Dallas Fort Worth, TX, November 13, 2026 —
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has lifted a ground stop that was in effect for Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Dallas Love Field Airport. However, passengers at both major North Texas airports continue to face flight delays.
The specific cause that led the FAA to implement the ground stop was not detailed in the information provided. The duration of the ground stop, including when it was initially imposed and precisely when it was lifted, also remains unstated.
Following the lifting of the restriction, flight operations are gradually resuming. Despite the removal of the FAA’s ground stop directive, significant flight delays are still being reported at both DFW International Airport and Dallas Love Field. The extent and specific airlines affected by these ongoing delays have not been provided.
Ground stops are typically implemented by the FAA to manage air traffic flow and ensure safety, often in response to factors such as weather conditions, air traffic control issues, or other operational challenges. The impact of such a stop can ripple through the national air traffic system, leading to cascading delays and cancellations.
Travelers intending to fly into, out of, or through the Dallas-Fort Worth area are advised to check directly with their respective airlines for the most current flight status information. Further details regarding the resolution of the delays are expected as operations normalize.
