PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. — A ground stop is causing hundreds of flight cancellations across the country, including some at South Florida airports.

President Trump ordered to ground all Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 aircraft across the country until further notice.

The announcement came in the wake of the deadly crash in Ethiopia over the weekend, the second deadly accident involving this type of aircraft.

Southwest, United and American airlines are rebooking thousands of passengers on other flights so they can make it to their final destination.
