A nationwide ground stop ordered by the Federal Aviation Administration on Friday left four departing flights holding at the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport, and the airport is telling passengers to expect delays.

The airport posted updates through the afternoon as the stop rippled across the country. One Roanoke woman, Kimberly Parrish, described being stuck on a plane on a runway during the disruption.

Travelers are advised to check with their airline and to watch the airport's flight status page before heading to the terminal.
