U.S. Airlines Warn of “Catastrophic Disruption” to Global Supply Chain When New 5G Service is Deployed
📡G3News: U.S. airlines and cargo carriers on Monday (Jan. 17) warned that the new 5G wireless service set to deploy Wednesday (Jan. 19) could ground flights, potentially stranding thousands of Americans overseas and delaying the delivery of key goods.
In a letter to Biden administration officials, executives of major carriers wrote that C-band 5G causes disruptions to airplanes’ instruments that could make “huge swaths” of the U.S. fleet unusable. They noted that by Wednesday’s deadline, most of the nation’s large airports will be under 5G-related flight restrictions from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
"This means that on a day like yesterday, more than 1,100 flights and 100,000 passengers would be subjected to cancellations, diversions or delays," chief executives of Delta Airlines, United Airlines, FedEx, UPS and others wrote in the letter.
