what happened
Airline shares slipped in the last minutes of trading after the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ordered a ground stop on flights. The agency cited “extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety” as the basis for the decision.
According to Dow Jones Newswires, American Airlines finished the regular session 1% lower at $13.17 and traded near $12.99 in extended trading. Update put the after-hours price at $12.94. Dow Jones Newswires also reported Delta down 1.7% and Southwest down 0.9% after the bell, and said JetBlue fell more than 2%. Update puts JetBlue’s decline at 3.7%.
why it matters
For investors, a flight halt raises the risk of lost ticket sales and disrupted schedules, so carriers often react quickly to such decisions. The reports did not say how long the restriction would last.
