Airlines across the world, including the long-haul carrier Emirates, rushed Wednesday to cancel or change flights heading into the US over an ongoing dispute about the rollout of 5G mobile phone technology near American airports.
The issue appeared to particularly impact the Boeing 777, a long-range, wide-body aircraft used by carriers worldwide. Two Japanese airlines directly named the aircraft as being particularly affected by the 5G signals as they announced cancellations and changes to their schedules.
