While several airlines have canceled flights to the United States, where telephony operators AT&T and Verizon began deploying new frequency bands for 5G on Wednesday, Brussels Airlines continues to fly normally to New York, a-t- we learned on Wednesday. The companies that canceled flights feared possible interference with on-board instruments. The fears were mainly related to the on-board devices of the Boeing 777 and 747-8.
Brussels Airlines operates an A330 between Zaventem and New York. But the parent company of the Belgian company, Lufthansa, had to cancel a flight between Frankfurt and Miami and replace its 747-8s on other flights with 747-400s.
If several hundred flights were canceled, we remained far from the dreaded major disruptions on Wednesday.
