Live U.S. flight disruption data for travel management, corporate travel, logistics and air freight teams. See which airports have ground delays, ground stops or closures right now, why, and how long the delays are, from the official FAA National Airspace System status.
What you get
One row per airport disruption:
- The airport and the type of disruption (ground delay, ground stop, closure)
- The reason, such as weather or traffic volume
- Average and maximum delay, or the closure window and reopening time
- When the FAA last updated it
Who this is for
- Travel management and corporate travel teams rebooking travellers when an airport is delayed.
- Logistics and air freight teams planning around airport disruptions.
- Travel apps and alert services showing current airport status.
Input
{"airportCodes": []}
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
airportCodes | array of strings (optional) | Limit to specific airports by 3-letter FAA/IATA code, e.g. ["JFK", "ORD", "LAX"]. Leave empty to return every airport currently affected nationwide. |
Output
One record per active delay/closure entry. The exact fields depend on
the category (ground delay programs report avgDelay/maxDelay;
closures report start/reopen; ground stops report endTime):
{"category": "Ground Delay Programs","updateTime": "Mon Aug 17 18:53:26 2026 GMT","airport": "SFO","reason": "low ceilings","avgDelay": "43 minutes","maxDelay": "1 hour and 55 minutes"}
{"category": "Airport Closures","updateTime": "Mon Aug 17 18:53:26 2026 GMT","airport": "LAX","reason": "!LAX 05/277 LAX AD AP CLSD TO NON SKED TRANSIENT GA ACFT ...","start": "May 27 at 18:26 UTC.","reopen": "May 28 at 16:00 UTC."}
At any given time only a handful of airports are affected — a check that finds none still returns no items but is billed once.
How it works
Direct calls to the official FAA NAS status feed (the same live data source behind fly.faa.gov) — no proxy, no key, no scraping. Public U.S. government data, updated continuously by the FAA as conditions change.
Pricing note
Billed per check, not per record returned — one charge whether the check returns 0 records or 50.
