FORT LAUDERDALE – American Airlines flights are delayed Tuesday morning at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. The airline says it is experiencing systems issues — on one of the busiest travel days of the year.

The Federal Aviation Administration issued a statement saying:

American Airlines is reporting a technical issue and has requested a nationwide ground stop. Please contact American Airlines for more information. 

Just last week, the airline’s vice president said the airline is expecting a record number of passengers during this holiday season.

The airline released a statement Tuesday saying, in part:

“A technical issue is affecting American flights this morning. Our teams are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, and we apologize to our customers for the inconvenience.”
