Investing.com -- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has announced plans to increase the number of flights at Newark Liberty International Airport following the early reopening of a runway. The runway, which was reopened on Monday, was almost two weeks ahead of its planned schedule.
The FAA’s Acting Administrator, Chris Rocheleau, stated that the runway is currently being utilized for departing flights. However, it will necessitate a few days to certify it for arrivals. Once certified, the arrival rate is expected to increase from 28 to 34 flights per hour.
Newark Liberty International Airport, located in New Jersey just a few miles from Manhattan, has had a tumultuous few weeks. The airport experienced a series of equipment outages, runway construction, and air traffic control staffing shortages. These issues led to several flight cancellations, diversions, and delays. With the runway now operational, the FAA is hopeful that the airport’s operations will return to normal soon.
