Charlotte, North Carolina, has the most cancellations – at 120 – as industry experts say other sectors might also feel effects
US airlines again canceled more than 1,000 flights on Saturday, the second day of the Federal Aviation Administration’s order to reduce air traffic because of the government shutdown.
So far, the slowdown at many of the nation’s busiest airports hasn’t caused widespread disruptions. But it has deepened the impact felt by what is now the nation’s longest federal shutdown.
Analysts warn that the upheaval will intensify and be felt far beyond air travel if the cancellations pick up and move closer to the Thanksgiving holiday.
You are more the “the Glas is half empty” kinda person, aren’t you?
the best kind of person, as long as they don’t also torture animals or rape children
The glass contents are at the halfway mark, and we’re being told it’s full. Call it pessimism, call it realism, whatever.
The kicker is, what is in the glass is also diluted. Yes, I’m fun at parties.
If you’re not fun here, it’s only because we’re stuck at a shitty party.
To be fair iirc about 3000 more people died in car accidents the months following 9/11 due to the increase in driving instead of flying.
