FAA notice shows ground stop at San Francisco International Airport

There is a ground stop in place for San Francisco International Airport (SFO) in California, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said in an advisory on Sunday, without providing additional details.

The airport did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

More than 54 million passengers traveled through SFO in 2025, according to its website. Several carriers including United Airlines, Air Canada, American Airlines and others operate from the airport.

In March, the FAA said it would impose new safety restrictions at SFO that would limit some landings and lead to significant delays.
