The Federal Aviation Administration will reduce scheduled air traffic by up to 10% across 40 high‑volume U.S. airports starting Friday, Nov. 7, citing air traffic controller staffing strains during the government shutdown, now in its 37th day.
The US government shutdown, the longest in history, led to 1,723 flight cancellations in 40 airports on the first day of cuts.
