The Federal Aviation Administration lifted a ground stop for all Alaska Airlines flights Wednesday after grounding the planes earlier as a result of a computer problem at the carrier.
The Seattle-based airline said in a statement that an issue arose “while performing an upgrade to the system that calculates our weight and balance.”
The FAA initially approved a ground stop for all Alaska and Horizon flights starting at approximately 10:50 a.m. ET.
It was lifted just before 11:45 a.m. ET.
It wasn’t immediately clear how many flights were affected. An Alaska spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
