MIA statement about the FAA System outage

Due to the nationwide FAA system outage on November 13 that began just before 4 p.m., there is currently a ground stop for most flights at Miami International Airport.

MIA is coordinating closely with airlines and safety and security partners to monitor evolving conditions, support affected passengers, and maintain operational readiness.

Passengers are strongly urged NOT to come to MIA until they have confirmed directly with their airline that their flight is operating and have received updated travel instructions. 

Passengers should continue monitoring their airline´s website or mobile app for the latest flight status and rebooking Information.

MIA´s coordinated response includes:

- Airport-Wide Communications: Broadcasting airport-pide messaging urging passengers to check directly with their airlines and avoid coming to the airport unless their flights has been confirmed.

- Security/Miami-Dade Sheriff´s Office: Monitoring flight delays and passenger rebooking activity, with additional security assets on standby to support crowd management as needed.

- Miami-Dade Fire Rescue: Extending staffing of terminal and concourse response carts beyond regular hours to ensure continued emergency response coverage and readiness.

All teams remain actívely engaged and prepared to adjust resources as conditions evolve. Passenger safety, clear communication, and operacional continuity remain our top priorities.
