Default 10% reduction in Air Trafiic

Secretary of Transportation and head of FAA just announced a 10% reduction in flights nationwide starting Friday morning with more to come, all due to ATC staffing.

Not too far off -base. I saw an interview with a Senator today - he mentioned that he wasn’t able to get a flight back to Washington and wound up going to an out of the way airport (Baltimore??).

I'm predicting this will have to end in less than three weeks... otherwise epic holiday travel meltdown.

I’m shocked it’s gotten to this point. It’s negligent and reckless. Praying it reopens soon or it’ll get real nasty here in Q4 for the industry as the holidays approach
