Upvoted you, but they frequently fly out of smaller/private airports that don’t have direct ATC control anyway, so it’s unlikely that’s a significant contributor to a solution. Though I definitely agree it should be done at whatever scale it can be to improve general conditions.
Most of the airports that private jets fly in and out of do have a tower. Also, there’s a lot of ground holds recently due to en route controller shortages which limits how much traffic can be in the air, which of course affects private jets as well.
Cut only private jets.

Yeah but lots of those towered smaller airports are staffed by contractor companies where the controllers are still getting paid normally rn
Thanks for the laugh!
