Government Shutdown Threatens Travel Plans

A U.S. government shutdown is raising concerns about travel disruptions. While flights are expected to continue, prolonged shutdowns could lead to longer airport wait times, flight delays, and even cancellations due to unpaid essential workers like TSA agents and air traffic controllers. Past shutdowns have seen increased absenteeism and strain on the aviation system. Amtrak and international travel are expected to remain operational, with minimal impact on passport and visa processing.
