Flights were delayed in Auckland this morning after an issue with the submission of flight plans.
The plans are a requirement for flying aircrafts, and need to be submitted at least 30 minutes prior to the beginning of the journey.
An RNZ staff member at Auckland Airport was told by a pilot that an issue with Air Traffic Control in the city meant flight plans were being issued very slowly, delaying take-offs.
Airways NZ says is aware that some airlines had an issue entering their flight plans, but understands the situation has been resolved.
More to come...
