American Airlines Cancels BWI Flights Amid 'Ground Stop'

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- American Airlines canceled any flights out of BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport Monday night that were not already in the air as of 8:30 p.m.

This was after BWI was put on a "ground stop" because of an incident at an FAA facility in Virginia.

The FAA slowed flights into the Washington D.C./Baltimore-area airports after fumes from construction work got into the Washington Center control room, which handles high altitude flights over the area.
