美国周五下达的停飞令导致航班停飞，该禁令在纽芬兰时间晚上10点刚过即被解除，但纽芬兰-拉布拉多省政府和机场官员已做好准备，将根据需要提供协助。
The U.S. ground stop that brought planes to a halt on Friday was lifted shortly after 10 p.m. NT, but N.L. government and airport officials were prepared to help as needed.
随着美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）因影响空中交通管制的故障而下令全美所有航班停飞，纽芬兰-拉布拉多省的各机场全天密切关注事态发展。
Airports in Newfoundland and Labrador were watching closely throughout the day as the United States Federal Aviation Administration grounded all flights across the U.S. over an outage affecting air traffic control.
联邦航空管理局周五表示，“特殊情况”引发了关键安全隐患，故障波及“所有航路管制中心”。这意味着没有飞机能从美国任何机场起飞，该局还警告航空公司，空中航班可能会被指令进入等待盘旋模式。
The Federal Aviation Administration said Friday “extraordinary circumstances” caused critical safety concerns and the outage affected "all air route traffic control centres." That means no planes could take off from any U.S. airport and the agency warned airlines that flights in the air could be ordered to fly in a holding pattern.
圣约翰斯国际机场管理局首席执行官丹尼斯·霍根表示，机场正在为可能的备降做准备，形势“变化莫测”。
The St. John's International Airport was preparing for diversions amid a "fluid situation," said airport authority CEO Dennis Hogan.
霍根周五早些时候对加拿大广播公司（CBC）新闻说：“目前事态发展相当快。目前YYT（圣约翰斯机场代码）尚未真正受到影响。”霍根表示，该机场对跨大西洋航班备降并不陌生，如有需要，停机坪上有足够空间容纳大型飞机。
"It's all moving pretty fast right now," Hogan told CBC News earlier on Friday. "We haven't really been impacted at this time at YYT." Hogan said the airport is no stranger to transatlantic diversions, and there would be room for large aircraft on the tarmac, if needed.
他说：“我们将确保飞机得到妥善安置，如果乘客需要下机，我们会安排他们下机。我们过去多次这样做过。所以，这都是我们应急响应的一部分。”
“We will make sure that they’re parked accordingly and that passengers, if they have to come off the aircraft, will be deplaned. And we’ve done that many times in the past. So, it’s all part of our emergency response," he said.
美国解除停飞令，航班获准再次起飞，此前停飞令导致数千航班延误和取消 NAV Canada称：随着美国停飞令解除，皮尔逊机场航班延误可能持续 纽芬兰中部，甘德国际机场管理局首席执行官雷格·赖特周五早些时候表示，他尚未听说有航班备降至该机场，但他正在密切关注事态发展。
U.S. flights cleared to take off again after ground stop order caused thousands of delays and cancellations Flight delays may continue at Pearson Airport as U.S. ground stop lifted, NAV Canada says In central Newfoundland, Gander International Airport Authority CEO Reg Wright said earlier on Friday that he hadn't heard about diversions to that airport, but he was keeping an eye on the situation as it developed.
加拿大军方第5联队古斯贝也在“监控事态，以防需要为受影响飞机提供任何潜在支持”，莫妮卡·梅兰森上尉在一份声明中说。省政府也已做好准备，将在需要时提供协助。
5 Wing Goose Bay was also monitoring "in case of any potential requirements to support affected aircraft," Capt. Monika Melanson said in a statement. The provincial government was also prepared to help where needed.
周五晚间发布的一份书面声明称，省级紧急行动中心已启动一级响应，这意味着加强监测。该省还与当地机场、联邦官员及其他省政府保持联系。
A written statement Friday night said the Provincial Emergency Operations Centre was engaged at level one, which means enhanced monitoring. The province was also in contact with local airports, as well as federal officials and other provincial governments.
声明称：“公共安全仍是我们的最高优先事项，我们将继续监测事态发展。省政府已准备好提供支持。”纽芬兰与拉布拉多省旅客滞留伍迪·米尼当天早些时候乘坐波特航空航班前往佛罗里达，机长宣布飞机将掉头降落渥太华。
"Public safety remains our highest priority as we continue to monitor the situation. The provincial government stands ready to support," the statement said. N.L. travellers stranded Woody Meaney was on a Porter Airlines flight to Florida earlier in the day when the captain announced the plane would be turning around and landing in Ottawa.
降落后，米尼向加广电视新闻（CBC News）电话采访时形容渥太华机场的场面是“彻底的混乱”。“这里简直就是一团糟，充其量只能算无序的混乱，”他说。
Upon landing, Meaney described the scene at the Ottawa airport as "sheer pandemonium." "It just seems like unorganized chaos at best here," he told CBC News in an interview over the phone.
米尼表示，波特航空既不为他改签飞往劳德代尔堡的航班，也不支付他返回纽芬兰与拉布拉多省的机票费用。他说也没人帮忙安排住宿——他被告知市内酒店已订满。
Meaney said Porter was not rebooking his flight to Fort Lauderdale, nor were they paying for a flight back home to N.L. He said nobody was available to help arrange accommodations either — he said he was told hotels in the city were booked to the brim.
“这是一个非常令人沮丧的答复。让我感到有点被独自抛弃在陌生的地方，”米尼说。他还患有1型糖尿病，担心滞留机场期间无法获得所需的食物。“我不知道该去哪里，”米尼说。来自康塞普申贝萨乌斯的劳拉·梅森也被困在远离家乡的地方。
"That was a very upsetting answer. It left me feeling a little bit left alone in a strange place," said Meaney. He also has Type 1 diabetes, and was worried he might go without the food he needs, stranded at the airport. "I don't have [any] idea where to go," Meaney said. Laura Mason of Conception Bay South was also stuck far from home.
梅森乘坐的从坎昆飞往多伦多的航班在墨西哥停机坪上停了约两小时，随后被取消并要求乘客下机。“我们不知道该怎么办，”梅森说，并补充说大家情绪还算稳定。
Mason's flight from Cancun to Toronto was parked on the tarmac in Mexico for about two hours before it was cancelled and deboarded. "We're not sure what we're going to do," said Mason, adding that spirits were still high.
据美国国土安全部部长马克韦恩·马林称，公众无需担心自身安全。
According to U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, there was no need for the public to fear for their safety.
“这不是另一次‘9·11’事件——我再怎么强调都不为过，”马林说。“人们做出那种假设，是因为上一次全国性停飞就是‘9·11’事件。这是一起电信中断事故，情况完全不同。”
"This isn't another 9/11— I just cant repeat that enough," said Mullin. "People are making that assumption because that's the last time we had a nationwide stoppage. This is a telecommunications outage. This is much different”
