亚当·格雷/盖蒂图片北美分公司 交通部长肖恩·达菲周六表示，周五全国性的停飞令是在一名承包商更新联邦航空管理局（FAA）一条老旧电信线路时发生错误后发布的。
Adam Gray/Getty Images North America Friday's nationwide ground stop was declared after an error occurred while a contractor was updating an old Federal Aviation Administration telecommunication line, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Saturday.
达菲说，长期为联邦航空管理局服务的承包商 L3Harris 正在该局至少一个偏远设施进行例行维护，将铜线更换为光纤。他表示，这些设施内的路由器制造于 2001 年。达菲说，此类更新在美国各机构已持续数十年。
L3Harris, a long time contractor for the Federal Aviation Administration, was doing routine maintenance in at least one of FAA's remote locations changing copper wire to fiber, he said. Duffy said the routers in these facilities were manufactured in 2001. These updates have been happening in American institutions for decades, Duffy said.
达菲说：“美国几乎每一个机构都已从铜线转为光纤、从模拟转为数字。只是联邦航空管理局可能是最后一个开展这项工作的机构，因为此前缺乏投资，但这项工作并不复杂。” L3Harris 暂未回应美国国家公共电台（NPR）的置评请求。
"Virtually every single institution in America has gone from copper to fiber, from analog to digital," Duffy said. "Just maybe the FAA is the last one to be doing this work because the investments haven't been made, but this is not complicated." L3Harris did not immediately respond to NPR's request for comment.
达菲表示，联邦航空管理局仍在调查导致错误蔓延至空管系统其他路由器的确切原因。
Duffy said the FAA is still investigating the exact error that started flooding other routers in the air traffic control system.
他说：“我们昨天进行的工作相当简单，地点也是非常偏远的设施。因此我们正在努力查明，是否存在无能的情况，即是否为用户失误、L3Harris 的安装失误，还是他们安装了有缺陷的路由器？” 联邦航空管理局局长布莱恩·贝德福德在同一简报会上表示，没有证据显示存在任何蓄意破坏或与人工智能相关的问题。
"It's pretty straightforward work that we were doing yesterday at, again, a very remote location. So what we're working to determine was whether we had incompetence, meaning was it user error, installator error from L3Harris, or did they install a faulty router?" Bryan Bedford, the FAA administrator, who joined Duffy at the briefing said there was no evidence of anything nefarious happening or AI-related issues.
数万名旅客滞留 全美数万名旅客周六仍因罕见的全面停飞令而滞留。预计混乱局面将持续数日。
Thousands of passengers miss flights Tens of thousands of passengers across the U.S. are still stranded Saturday after a rare ground stop halted all flights. The chaos is expected to linger for days.
航空系统已于周六上午恢复上线，并正缓慢回归正常，但昨天的全国性停飞令导致的延误和取消仍将持续，达菲在周六的新闻发布会上表示。
The aviation system is back online and slowly returning to normal Saturday morning, but delays and cancellations will continue after yesterday's nationwide ground stop, Duffy said in the press briefing Saturday.
贝德福德说：“根据我们从航空公司合作伙伴那里听到的一切情况，他们相信到周日下班前将能够恢复完整的航班计划完整性。”
"Based on everything that we're hearing from our airline partners, they believe that they'll be able to have full schedule integrity by the close of business on Sunday," Bedford said.
达菲周五晚间对记者说：“我认为随着感恩节出行高峰的到来，我们将恢复并投入运营。”周五约四小时内，美国各地机场数千架次航班停飞，这是自2001年9月11日恐怖袭击以来，美国航空系统遭遇的最大规模中断之一。
Duffy told reporters Friday night: "I think we're going to be back up and operational as we come into the heat of travel during Thanksgiving." For about four hours on Friday, thousands of flights at U.S. airports were grounded in one of the biggest disruptions of the nation's air travel system since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
据航班追踪网站FlightAware统计，周五近25,000架次航班延误，超过9,000架次取消。这种混乱延续到了周六上午，已记录超过4,000架次取消。据追踪航空分析数据的Cirium统计，这占美国出港航班的14%。
Nearly 25,000 flights were delayed, and over 9,000 were cancelled on Friday, according to FlightAware a flight tracking site. The disruption seeped into Saturday morning with more than 4,000 cancellations recorded. That's 14% of flights departing the U.S., according to data from Cirium, which tracks aviation analytics.
达菲周五表示，空管设施从下午早些时候开始出现雷达和通信系统“间歇性”故障。达菲将故障归咎于“老旧交换机、老旧路由器”。国土安全部长马克韦恩·马林在白宫简报室与达菲同台，表示没有证据表明问题是由攻击造成的。
Duffy said Friday that air traffic control facilities had experienced "intermittent" outages of their radar and communications systems beginning earlier in the afternoon. Duffy blamed "old switches, old routers" for the failures. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin joined Duffy in the White House briefing room and said there was no evidence the issue was due to an attack.
周六上午，全国各地机场的航班显示屏上仍布满红色的“取消”标记。在佛罗里达州坦帕国际机场，安检前的主航站楼区域里，人们蜷缩在椅子上抓紧眯一会。
Flight boards at airports across the country Saturday morning continued to be riddled with red cancelled marks. At Tampa International Airport in Florida, people in the main terminal area before security curled up in chairs to grab a wink of sleep.
周五晚间，华盛顿里根国家机场的航班显示屏显示，数十个航班延误至凌晨早些时候或被取消。
On Friday night, a flight board at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in D.C. showed dozens of flights delayed into the early morning hours or cancelled.
乘客艾琳和杰克·布里特周五在华盛顿特区机场度过了大半天。他们的飞往佛罗里达州劳德代尔堡的航班于下午3点登机。到下午5点半，他们正在下飞机——但仍身在华盛顿特区。
Passengers Erin and Jake Britt spent half the day at the airport in D.C. on Friday. Their plane to Fort Lauderdale, Fla. boarded at 3 p.m. By 5:30 p.m., they were getting off the plane — but they were still in D.C.
“总的来说，我们飞机上的人肯定很恼火，但还算讲理，”艾琳·布里特在晚上8点离开机场时说。“大家都很生气，问：‘你们怎么没准备好？’感觉就像是‘谁也没准备好’。”她说，机长和空乘人员掌握的信息并不比乘客多。“他们看起来也同样一无所知，”她说。
"Overall, our plane was definitely annoyed, but reasonable," Erin Britt said, as the couple left the airport at 8pm. "People being upset and asking like, 'Well, how are you not prepared for this?' And it was like, 'Well, no one was prepared.'" She said neither the pilot nor flight attendants had any more information than passengers." They seem just as in the dark," she said.
这对夫妇决定取消周末行程，但当晚的麻烦并未结束。他们在捷蓝航空客服热线上等待了九个多小时，只为申请退款。“我每隔20分钟就设一个闹钟，生怕睡着了，”艾琳·布里特说。
The pair decided to cancel their weekend trip, but the night didn't end there. They spent over nine hours overnight waiting on the JetBlue customer service call line to be reimbursed. "I was setting alarms in 20 minute intervals in case I fell asleep," Erin Britt said.
对于周末有活动或安排的人来说，延误又增添了一层压力。乔·罗曼诺和玛迪·卡巴纳原定于周六下午从佛罗里达州奥兰多出发乘坐游轮。
For people who had events or plans over the weekend – the delay added an extra layer of stress. Joe Romano and Maddie Cabana had a cruise leaving Orlando, Fla. Saturday afternoon.
“简直让人翻白眼。我本来就因公经常出差，一直在应对航班延误，”罗曼诺说。“这事一发生，我就想：‘当然了，倒霉事总轮到我。’”“只是很不方便，让人沮丧，”卡巴纳补充道，两人正斟酌是托运行李还是直接回家。“希望一切顺利。总会解决的，向来如此。”最终确实解决了。他们的捷蓝航班最终被取消后，他们迅速在西南航空订了另一班航班，于周六清早抵达。
"It was a big eye roll. I mean, I travel a lot for work already, so I'm constantly dealing with flight delays," Romano said. "When this happened, I was just like, 'Of course, it always happens to me.'" "Just rather inconvenient and frustrating," Cabana added, as the pair contemplated checking their bags or going home. "Hopefully, everything will be fine. It'll all work out. It always does." And it did – eventually. After their JetBlue flight was ultimately cancelled, they quickly booked another one on Southwest Airlines and made it early Saturday morning.

“我的丈夫，我的英雄，正从新泽西州开车下来接我，”迪皮特罗说。
"My husband, my hero, is driving down from New Jersey to come get me," DiPietro said.
其他替代方案包括人们改乘美铁列车，因为他们努力抵达目的地。不过，美铁的系统周五晚上也出现了短暂中断。
Other alternatives included people switching to Amtrak trains as they struggled to get to their destination. Although, even Amtrak's system had a brief outage Friday night.
这是自2001年9月11日以来的第二次全国性停飞。美国上一次发布这种规模的停飞是在2023年，当时因NOTAM（飞行通告）系统出现故障，所有美国机场都被迫关闭。该系统用于向飞行员和机场发布实时危险警报。
This was only the second nationwide ground stop since September 11, 2001. The U.S. last issued a ground stop of this scale in 2023, when all U.S. airports were shut down due to an outage in the NOTAM (Notice to Air Missions) system, which alerts pilots and airports of real-time hazards.
那次故障引发了网络攻击的担忧，但联邦航空管理局后来认定，问题系承包商员工误删关键文件所致。
That outage prompted fears of a cyberattack, but the FAA later determined the issue was caused when contract workers inadvertently deleted critical files.
联邦航空管理局最近开始推广一款名为SMART系统的人工智能增强软件工具，这是其对美国空中交通管制系统进行大规模改造的一部分。但该工具的开发商空间智能公司迅速否认了其产品可能与航班中断有关的猜测。
The FAA has recently begun rolling out an AI-enhanced software tool known as the SMART system as part of its ambitious overhaul of the nation's air traffic control system. But Air Space Intelligence, the company that makes the tool, quickly dismissed speculation that its product could be connected to the flight disruptions.
“当前的停飞并非基于或由SMART系统、ASI的任何产品，或我们与联邦航空管理局和空中交通管制的集成所导致，”该公司在社交媒体上表示。机场延误 旅行
"The current ground stop is not based on or a result of the SMART system, any product of ASI or our integration with FAA and ATC," the company said on social media airport delays Travel
