Are planes taking off right now?
 
Hate to ask this here, but based on what happened in Boston, I would like to know if planes and TSA are operating normally...

Thanks and prayers go out to the people affected.

Things are still moving, I'd just expect ramped up screening at the checkpoints, if that.

landed at MCO 30 mins. ago. Planes taking off...

Be safe all.

Ground stop is due to winds...not a joke.

DL should be issuing a waiver soon for all BOS travel in the next day or two.

The ground stop is no longer in effect as of 1715L. http://www.fly.faa.gov/flyfaa/Airpor...jsp?q=bos&go=1 Listening to KBOS Clearance and ATC is confirming this and operations seem to be back online as usual.

There will be some delays as security is ramped up to Red

Curious if BOS PreCheck is still going business as usual or is this the first to stop with an incident like this in town?

I do not know for 100% certain. But I would be totally shocked if this was not the first to stop. Security must be at red with sniffer dogs everywhere.

I know from listening to the police radio, they took two canines from Logan and redeployed them near the blast site. Most cities don't have many EOD dogs, so they're forced to take resources from the airport.

Here is our waiver: http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_...es/boston.html
Thanks,

I read that they reconfigured the runway usage so as not to have aircraft flying overhead the city - thus the need for the ground stop while they changed the flow of aircraft.
