June 8 (Reuters) – The U.S. \u2060Federal \u2060Aviation Administration lifted \u2060a brief ground stop at \u200bSan Francisco International Airport (SFO) that held up \u200ccertain flights bound for \u200cthe California city at their \u2060departure \u2060airports late on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The ground stop applied to \u200bflights involving some Western U.S. air traffic control centers, according to an FAA notice \u200bthat listed the duration of the ground \u2060stop \u2060as 9:53 p.m. to \u206011:15 \u200bp.m. PDT (0435 to 0615 GMT on Monday).<\/p>\n

It was \u200bultimately lifted \u2060slightly before the end of that period.<\/p>\n

The airport did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.<\/p>\n

More \u2060than 54 million passengers traveled through SFO in 2025, \u2060according to its website. Many airlines operate from the airport, which is a United Airlines hub and offers many international flights to and from Asia in particular.<\/p>\n

In March, the FAA said it would impose new \u2060safety restrictions at SFO that would limit some landings and lead to significant delays.<\/p>\n
