Edit: obviously a developing situation, see responses to this comment for current advisories.

- callahad 4y agoI don't know how these things work, but the most recent advisory, 027, seems to imply that United Airlines has a full ground stop until 15:00 UTC / 10:00 Eastern. Edit: Of course as I was typing that, Advisory 028 pops up with a nationwide ground stop until 9:30 Eastern: "GROUND STOP ALL FLIGHTS / ALL DESTINATIONS EXCLUDES MILITARY AC AND MEDEVAC FLIGHTS" https://www.fly.faa.gov/adv/adv_otherdis.jsp?advn=28&adv_date=01112023&facId=DCC&title=NATIONWIDE+GROUND+STOP&titleDate=01/11/23 https://www.fly.faa.gov/adv/adv_otherdis.jsp?advn=28&adv_dat...

- chucksmash 4y agoYep, the situation has changed since the post was made. Parent comment was correct at the time, however. At 5:40am Eastern, the agent at my departure gate told us that there was a ground stop affecting all flights, which was reflected in my original title. This was not reflected in the NOTAM I posted, as was pointed out by several early commenters, and in fact my flight was able to board and depart around 7:00am Eastern before the ground stop took effect.
