The Federal Aviation Administration has lifted the nationwide ground stop that brought departing flights across the U.S. to a halt Friday afternoon, but travelers could continue feeling the effects into the weekend. CNBC reported that more than 10,000 flights were disrupted as airlines dealt with delays and cancellations caused by the shutdown.
