FAA cuts air traffic 10% in 40 major markets due to shutdown-related staffing shortages, causing delays and cancellations.
The Federal Aviation Administration has reduced air traffic by 10% across 40 major U.S. markets starting Friday due to staffing shortages from the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 36th day.
The move, aimed at ensuring safety and operational stability, stems from furloughed or unpaid FAA employees, including air traffic controllers.
Travelers may face delays, cancellations, or schedule changes, particularly in high-traffic areas.
The FAA emphasized that safety remains its top priority and that the reduction is a temporary measure pending resolution of the funding lapse.
No specific end date for the shutdown or full service restoration has been announced.
