The start of Mother's Day on Sunday was met with yet again more hiccups at Newark Liberty International Airport.

This was the third time in recent weeks after air traffic controller connectivity issues on April 28 and then again Friday.

The Federal Aviation Administration issued a ground stop for Newark early Sunday morning, which lasted from 12:32 a.m. to 1:17 a.m.

In a statement, the FAA said:

"There was a telecommunications issue at Philadelphia TRACON Area C, which guides aircraft in and out of Newark Liberty International Airport airspace. The FAA briefly slowed aircraft in and out of the airport while we ensured redundancies were working as designed. Operations have returned to normal."

Travelers like Florida resident and Jersey City native Julissa McClammy said they dealt with the issues as best as they could.

“I honestly just messaged my boss and I was like, ‘Hey if I make it tomorrow, we’re all good.’ I just go with the flow because it’s out of your control at the same time,” McClammy said.

Sharon Krasnyuk, of Brooklyn, said she wasn’t surprised by later delays, like for her flight Sunday afternoon.

"We got a really ‘sus’ email saying, ‘Hey, you can get a free change on your flight. There’s no delay, there’s no problem, but we’ll give you a free change.’ I didn’t know what that meant, I was just already prepared that my flight would be delayed,” Krasnyuk said.

Krasnyuk’s cousin Michelle said add local traffic to the mix with these turbulent times, and she wishes they made other arrangements.

“I definitely would have chose JFK for sure,” she said.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed on NBC’s "Meet The Press" a plan to have a reduction of flights at Newark for the "next several weeks" in the name of safety.

Duffy said it remains safe to travel in and out of Newark.

News 12 New Jersey reached out to the FAA for an updated statement but had not heard back as of Sunday night.
