Federal officials are urging the chief executives of AT&T and Verizon Communications to delay plans to introduce their new 5G wireless services next week due to safety concerns with aircraft operations.

In a Dec. 31 letter, Federal Aviation Administration Administrator Steve Dickson and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg asked AT&T CEO John Stankey and Verizon Communications CEO Hans Vestberg to postpone plans to activate the technology on Jan. 5 by no more than two weeks while the FAA studies the potential for interference with aircraft operations.

These steps, the letter said, "will result in widespread and unacceptable disruption as airplanes divert to other cities or flights are canceled, causing ripple effects throughout the U.S. air transportation system." A Lufthansa flight arrives from Munich, Germany as an American Airlines plane comes in for a landing at Miami International Airport, Monday, Nov. 8, 2021, in Miami.

Dickson and Buttigieg noted that the delay "advances this goal and avoids substantial disruptions to aviation operations – and to the flying public – in the short term."
