FAA cuts deepen as flight cancellations surge

Read, Watch or Listen

Air travelers face worsening cancellations and delays as the FAA imposes deeper cuts at 40 major airports. After thousands of weekend cancellations, airlines scrubbed 1,700 flights by early Monday and about 1,000 for Tuesday; reductions are rising from 4% to 6% Tuesday and 10% by week’s end. Unpaid for nearly a month, some controllers have stopped showing up. President Donald Trump urged them to get back to work and floated $10,000 bonuses for those who did, a move the union called political. The FAA also tightened restrictions on private flights, citing safety and staffing strains.
