AT&T says it will delay activating 5G near some airports after airlines ask Biden to intervene
AT&T made the announcement as it works with the aviation industry and the US Federal Aviation Administration for further information, according to a statement from AT&T spokesperson Megan Ketterer."We are frustrated by the FAA's inability to do what nearly 40 countries have done, which is to safely deploy 5G technology without disrupting aviation services, and we urge it do so in a timely manner," the spokeswoman said.
A White House official tells CNN that the administration is talking with the FAA, Federal Communications Commission, wireless carriers, airlines and aircraft equipment manufacturers to find a solution that still allows the rollout without sacrificing the safety of flights.Airlines ask Biden administration for 'immediate intervention' on 5GIn a Tuesday letter, CEOs from 10 airlines told the Biden administration to push back the already-delayed rollout.
