American Airlines is under a national groundstop due to a system outage, the Federal Aviation Administration confirmed Tuesday evening.
According to the Air Traffic Control System Command Center, all airports and facilities are being impacted by the IT outage. Planes are currently landing, but not departing, according to FlightAware.
A post from the airline on X apologized for the outage and said its IT team is working "as quickly as possible to get the system restored."
This is a developing story and will be updated.
