Fri Mar 13, 2026, 08:05 PM

Friday

Just copied his post on X as he posted it. Sounds like hundreds of planes delayed- over 600.

Secretary Shawn Dufy @SecDuffy
🚨BREAKING🚨 GROUND STOP CURRENTLY AT THE FOLLOWING AIRPORTS:

⚠️ Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA)
⚠️ Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD)
⚠️ Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI) ⚠️ Richmond International Airport (RIC)

@FAANews is working to address the source of a strong odor coming from Potomac TRACON that is impacting operations at the three airports.
