According to reports, Newark airport experienced significant operational challenges recently. On Monday night, as few as three radar controllers were monitoring the airspace, according to the FAA. Additionally, a single person managed all of Newark Airport’s flights for three hours. These issues prompted the FAA to launch an emergency task force to ensure safety at the airport following multiple problems. United Airlines also sent an important email to 3.7 million customers addressing these concerns.
