美国联邦航空局(FAA)表示,为所谓的”特殊安全原因”,已暂停所有进出埃尔帕索的航班,直至2月20日深夜。目前尚未说明具体原因。
该局称,关闭的空域被归类为”国防空域”,如果”确定飞机构成迫在眉睫的安全威胁”,政府”可能对空中飞机使用致命武力”。
该局还警告称,不遵守限制的飞行员”可能会被执法/安全人员拦截、拘留和询问”,并可能面临民事处罚、吊销飞行员执照,甚至被提起刑事指控。
这些限制适用于18,000英尺以下的航班,因此处于巡航高度的飞机可以继续飞越埃尔帕索。
埃尔帕索国际机场在社交媒体上发布通知称:”所有往返埃尔帕索的航班均已停飞,包括商业航班、货运航班和通用航空。美国联邦航空局已发布飞行限制,自2月10日晚11:30(山地标准时间)至2月20日晚11:30(山地标准时间)生效。旅客应联系其航空公司获取最新航班状态信息。”
机场在另一份声明中表示,联邦航空局的这一决定是”临时通知”,并且也适用于”我们的邻近社区新墨西哥州圣特雷莎”。
声明补充道:”机场工作人员已与联邦航空局取得联系,我们正在等待进一步指导。与此同时,运营埃尔帕索机场的商业航空公司正在被告知这一限制。”
埃尔帕索国际机场毗邻比格斯陆军机场,与墨西哥华雷斯市隔河相望。
机场称,其每天约有55个航班起降,涉及六大主要航空公司,主要是西南航空、美国航空和联合航空。

FAA grounds all flights into and out of El Paso for 10 days “for special security reasons”
February 11, 2026 / 7:35 AM EST / CBS News
The Federal Aviation Administration says it has halted all flights into and out of El Paso until very late on Feb. 20 for what it calls “special security reasons.” There’s been no indication of what those reasons are.
The agency said the airspace it closed is being classified as “national defense airspace” and the “government may use deadly force” against an airborne aircraft if it’s “determined that the aircraft poses an imminent security threat.”
It also warned that pilots who don’t comply with the restrictions “may be intercepted, detained and interviewed by law enforcement/security personnel” and could be hit with civil penalties and lose their pilot’s licenses, and might have criminal charges brought against them.
The restrictions apply to flights below 18,000 feet so planes at cruising attitude can continue over El Paso.
El Paso International Airport issued an advisory on social media saying, “All flights to and from El Paso are grounded, including commercial, cargo and general aviation. The FAA has issued a flight restriction halting all flights to and from El Paso effective from February 10 at 11:30 PM (MST) to February 20 at 11:30PM (MST). Travelers should contact their airlines to get most up-to-date flight status information.”
The airport said in another statement that the FAA move was made “on short notice” and also was also in effect for “our neighboring community, Santa Teresa, NM.”
It added that, “Airport staff has reached out to the FAA, and we are pending additional guidance. In the meanwhile, commercial airlines operating out of El Paso are being informed of the restriction.”
The airport is adjacent to Biggs Army Airfield and is across the border from Juarez, Mexico.
It says it operates about 55 departures a day involving six major carriers, mainly Southwest Airlines, American and United.
CBS News has reached out to the FAA and the El Paso airport for more information.
