The Federal Aviation Administration’s unprecedented order to scale back flights nationwide because of the record-long government shutdown is set to take effect Friday morning.
The 40 airports selected by the FAA span more than two dozen states and include hubs such as Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles and Charlotte, North Carolina, according to the order.
In some metropolitan areas, including New York, Houston, Chicago and Washington, multiple airports will be impacted, while the ripple effects could reach smaller airports as well.


Cutting flights during the HOLIDAYS is a GREAT Policy! WHY did Voters REJECT it Tuesday at the Polls? CRAZY!
Holidays in America have just become another opportunity for the wealthy to steal more resources. We need to bring the economy to a halt ourselves because neoliberalism and conservatives are going to drive the train right off cliff in order to say their house was bigger than their neighbors.
