Shutdown curbs private jets at major airports

Read, Watch or Listen

With the shutdown past 40 days, unpaid air traffic controller shortages pushed the FAA to tighten flight limits, escalating last week’s 10 percent cut into a de facto halt on private jets at 12 of 40 affected airports. The NBAA said the rules disproportionately hit business aviation, citing more than a million jobs and $340 billion in impact. Major hubs including LAX, JFK, Newark and Atlanta are on the list, with exceptions for emergency and official flights. Some alternatives remain open, though more restrictions could follow as the Senate begins steps to end the shutdown.
