Following mass cancellations at Newark Liberty International Airport due to technical failures in its air traffic control system, the FAA has committed to implementing upgrades. The disruptions were partially caused by an outdated radar system that went offline temporarily. Upgrades will include replacing older copper lines with fiber optics and enhancing data connections. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is optimistic about improvements by summer, coinciding with broader plans to modernize the nation's air traffic control system, which has faced criticism in light of recent incidents.
