A ground stop issued by the Federal Aviation Administration that was impacting flights at Palm Springs International Airport was lifted Saturday.

“Departures and arrivals will begin to slowly resume, though delays are expected to continue as operations normalize,” airport officials announced at 4 p.m. Saturday.

Travelers were advised to continue monitoring their flight status directly with their airline.

The reason for the ground stop was not immediately clear.

An earlier announcement from the airport on Saturday stated, “At this time, departing flights are not operating due to a ground stop. Aircraft have been able to arrive, though some inbound flights have diverted, and delays and schedule disruptions are expected. This issue is not specific to PSP and is affecting multiple Southern California airports.”
