Aircraft at Newark forced to return to gates under tarmac rule

Aircraft grounded at Newark exceeded the Department of Transportation's three-hour tarmac limit, forcing planes to return to gates to discharge passengers and creating a significant operational disruption.
“"temporarily" except the aircraft on the ground at EWR are hitting the DOT's 3-hour-tarmac rule and all having to return to gates to discharge passengers. HUGE mess.”
