Florida airports are largely back to normal operations as Hurricane Dorian moves north towards the Carolinas.
The FAA is working with government partners and aviation stakeholders to safely manage air traffic affected by Hurricane Dorian. The FAA Command Center is managing the rerouting of flights in the airspace affected by the storm. Most, if not all airports in Florida are now back to normal operations. Airlines who fly to other airports in the path of the storm may delay or cancel flights. As always, check with your airline about the status of your flight before you leave for the airport.
General aviation and drone pilots should check NOTAMs and TFRs. Drone pilots must comply with FAA rules and should:
Avoid flying in the area unless conducting an active disaster response or recovery mission.
Be aware that the FAA might issue a TFR in the affected area. Be sure to check for active TFRs if you plan to fly. Remember that you cannot fly inside a TFR without FAA approval.
The FAA has established four Airspace Coordination Areas (ACA) over the southeast coast along the projected path of Hurricane Dorian to allow disaster response and recovery flights to operate safely. Pilots flying in the ACAs should be very cautious because many aircraft are operating in the area. Drone pilots should avoid flying in the ACAs without FAA permission. Aircraft and drone pilots should check NOTAMs frequently for the latest information about flying along the coast. The ACA for South Florida (FDC 9/1722) is cancelled.
