Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) faced significant travel disruptions on Labor Day due to equipment outages at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), particularly affecting radar systems. The complications began around 2:30 PM, leading to delays of up to 147 minutes and causing over 350 flight delays and nearly 30 cancellations. Although the FAA's ground stop was subsequently lifted, operations remained slow with passengers expressing frustration over missed connections and lengthy waits. By late Monday night, the airport had reported 439 delays and 60 cancellations, mainly impacting United Airlines flights. EWR officials urged travelers to check with their airlines for updates on their flight statuses as the situation improved. This incident marks another instance of operational challenges at EWR amid a busy travel period.
