Nashville Flights Resume After FAA Ground Stop Lifted
Flights in Nashville are resuming following the lifting of a nationwide FAA ground stop.
Nashville, TN, November 13, 2026 — Nashville International Airport (BNA) is experiencing a return to normal flight operations as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has lifted a nationwide ground stop. The pause in air traffic, which affected flights across the country, has now concluded, allowing air travel to resume.
The FAA had issued the ground stop earlier today, impacting all departures nationwide due to a system outage. While the specific details and duration of the outage were not immediately provided by the FAA, the order to halt flights has been rescinded. This means that flights scheduled to depart from or arrive in Nashville can now proceed.
Travelers who experienced cancellations or significant delays are advised to check directly with their respective airlines for the most up-to-date information regarding their flight status. Re-accommodation procedures and potential compensation policies will vary by carrier. The impact of the ground stop on the local economy and passenger schedules is expected to diminish as operations return to full capacity.
The FAA has indicated that it is working to understand the cause of the system outage to prevent future disruptions. Further information regarding the incident is anticipated as the investigation progresses. Passengers are encouraged to allow for extra time when traveling to the airport, as residual delays and congestion may occur as operations normalize.
