After telecom operators delay deploying 5G networks around airports in the US, the US Federal Aviation Administration and Boeing have issued official notices lifting restrictions on flight operations, enabling Emirates to safely restore full regular operations to all its US destinations by Saturday, January 22. .
As of tomorrow (Friday, January 21), Emirates will resume its Boeing 777 flights to Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Miami, Newark, Orlando and Seattle.
It is noteworthy that Emirates Airlines services to Los Angeles, New York JFK and Washington DC have not stopped. Flights to Boston, Houston and San Francisco, on which the carrier temporarily used the A380 aircraft on January 20 and 21, will return to service with Boeing 777 aircraft from Saturday, January 22.
Emirates also operates Boeing 777 freighters to Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Columbus and Aguadilla, to transport exports and essential goods, such as essential food and medicine.
Emirates Airlines has suspended flights to certain US destinations based on US Federal Aviation Administration guidelines and Boeing recommendations due to potential interference between 5G antennas and aircraft systems, in order to ensure the safety of operations is of the highest priority.
Although Emirates Airlines was aware of the potential interference between aircraft systems and the frequencies of the fifth generation networks deployed near some American airports, the complete information about the extent and nature of the interference on sensitive aircraft systems and the potential impact and threat to flight operations in certain scenarios, Including landings in low visibility conditions, it was not demonstrated until shortly before the deployment of 5G systems. After assessing the potential risks to the safety and security of operations, and consulting with Boeing, Emirates Airlines decided on January 19, to immediately suspend passenger flights operated by its Boeing 777 aircraft.
Sir Tim Clark, President of Emirates Airline, said: “We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the temporary disruption of operations to our customers to and from some destinations in the US. We have always made safety a priority, and we will never take this risk. While we welcome the latest developments, that enables us to resume essential transportation links to the United States to serve passengers and freight customers, but we also know that this is a temporary reprieve and that a long-term solution is required, and we will continue to work with relevant aircraft manufacturers and regulators to ensure our operations continue to be completely safe.”
Sir Clarke added: “We thank our customers for their patience and understanding, and we greatly appreciate the efforts of our teams and partners, who have continued to work around the clock to minimize the impact on customers and help us quickly resume our services.”
