They probably can't land due to the noxious fumes and smell emanating from the Swamp creatures below........

It's always been this way. You're not allowed to fly over DC. It's why the planes make that weird AF turn before landing at DCA

But no traffic out of Reagan International Airport? The affected area is larger than normal and all traffic in ormout of Reagan looks to be in a holding pattern

Idk - I can't answer that. I just saw OP linked to FAA rules about not flying over DC.

You're just linking to another post. I looked at a map and it looked normal.

FAA shut down all air traffic above 18000' from North Carolina to New Jersey for 2 hours today. They claimed it was due to kovind cleaning at any air traffic control radar facility. I guess they didn't want to use their secondary terminals, But who really looks into the technical details anyways.

Both aircraft circled for 15 minutes then continued toward DC.
