(KRON) — A United Airways flight departing from San Francisco Worldwide Airport to Aspen, Colorado, was delayed for over 17 hours, in keeping with the airline’s web site.
The United flight was initially scheduled to depart SFO to Aspen on Friday, March 23 at 4 p.m. The flight was then delayed for 15 hours because of unknown points. After the preliminary 15-hour delay, the flight was then delayed for an additional two hours.
The delay was attributable to a possible challenge with the aircraft’s anti-skid system (brakes), in keeping with SkyWest Airways, which operated the United flight. SkyWest launched a press release on Sunday (see beneath).
SkyWest flight 5496, working as United Specific from San Francisco to Aspen, was delayed in a single day on Friday, March 22 because of a sign that there might be a problem with the anti-skid system. As soon as it was decided the system was functioning usually, the flight safely operated to Aspen. Upon arrival in Aspen, the flight needed to await a gate for deplaning because of ramp congestion. We apologize to our clients for the inconvenience.

Resulting from current security occasions, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is rising oversight of United Airways to make sure that it’s complying with security rules.
The variety of safety-related occasions in current weeks have rightfully prompted us to pause and consider whether or not there’s something we are able to and may do otherwise. In any case, security is foundational to the success of our airline and we are able to by no means take it as a right.
Sasha Johnson, Vice President of Company Security at United Airways
