How soon do you believe this ATC reduction in capacity will last?

I’m going with ‘eventually’ but that wasn’t one of the poll options.

Trump offering a $10,000 bonus for all controllers who didn’t sick out during the shutdown should smooth ruffled feathers a bit.

When was ATC ever at normal capacity? They've been chasing that tail since Reagan.

I hope this helped.

It was never going to be a black swan no matter how long it went. There was nothing impacting demand. If anything it would have helped our profit because we could have jacked up prices on the fewer flights we were allowed to do.
