AIRLINES CHANGE FLIGHTS TO US DUE TO 5G ROLLOUT
by Tim Hepher and David Shepardson
(Reuters) – Some of the world’s major airlines have changed or suspended flights to the United States ahead of the rollout of new 5G services in the country on Wednesday.
The US Federal Aeronautics Administration (FAA) has warned that potential risks of interference could affect certain sensitive instruments such as altimeters and significantly hamper low visibility operations.
Although telecom operators AT&T and Verizon, which won almost all of the C-band spectrum in the United States, agreed to delay the deployment of their 5G services near airports, several airlines preferred to cancel their flights. or change aircraft model.
Other companies said cancellations were likely unless the FAA issues new official guidance following announcements from the two telecom carriers.
Several airlines, including Emirates, All Nippon Airways, Japan Airlines, Korean Air Lines, China Airlines or Cathay Pacific Airways, have announced that they will suspend their flights to the United States or that they will not use Boeing planes for their flights to and within the United States.
The airlines said they made the move in response to advice from Boeing that 5G signals could interfere with the 777’s radio altimeter.
A Boeing spokesperson had no immediate comment.
