Beginning Thursday, Oct. 12 at 0400z, airways G448 between TADPO and MTH will no longer be an available route option regardless of aircraft equipment or destination.

The previous single airway, G448, has been replaced by two laterally separated RNAV airways, Y442 and Y183. The design is intended to reduce delays for aircraft climbing out of and descending into the Miami Terminal area.

New Routes:

  • Y442 southbound only
  • Y183 northbound only
  • These new Yankee routes are RNAV airways.
  • Aircraft must be properly equipped to fly them. The Y-Routes are designated RNAV 2 with GNSS required
  • Aircraft without the minimum equipment will be routed via the MAXIM/CANOA or URSUS/TANIA Intersections
  • No exceptions will be made
