NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Staffing issues at the Nashville International Airport control tower caused the FAA to issue a brief ground delay.

The FAA said it briefly slowed the flow of flights into the airport due to an unanticipated air traffic controller staffing issue.

The anticipated delay was expected to affect arriving and departing aircraft until around 7 p.m. The ground delay was lifted just after 6 p.m.

UPDATE: As of 6:01 p.m., the FAA has lifted the ground delay at BNA.
