The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had ordered flight reductions at 40 airports due to stressed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/search-and-rescue-teams-at-site-of-indonesian-plane-crash\/\" title=\"Search and rescue teams at site of Indonesian plane crash\">air traffic controllers<\/a> who went unpaid during the shutdown and took on other jobs to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/under-trump-americans-have-seen-their-best-wage-growth-in-40-years\/\" title=\"Under ..., ...ns Have Seen Their Best Wage Growth In 40 Years\">make ends meet<\/a>. Flight cancellations and delays have increased leading up to the busy Thanksgiving travel period, with major hubs like Chicago O&#8217;Hare, New York LaGuardia, and Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson particularly affected. Lawmakers are urged to swiftly approve a funding bill to reopen the government to help mitigate further travel disruptions. Meanwhile, a majority of travelers say they would cancel trips or seek alternatives if cancellations persist, and manny believe airlines should offer compensation as required by FAA policies for delayed or canceled flights. President Trump called for controllers to return to work instantly and promised bonuses to those who did not take time off during the shutdown.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>A major trade association representing American, Delta, Southwest, and United Airlines warned Monday that residual effects from the government shutdown could still <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >impact air travel<\/a> for days after the government is reopened.<\/p>\n<p>Airlines for America announced disruptions in travel could persist following the Senate&rsquo;s passage of a funding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/senate-clears-bill-end-41-day-government-shutdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bill<\/a> to reopen the government, which will now move to the House for approval later this week.<\/p>\n<p>The 42-day shutdown, the longest in history, has upended travel plans for millions as air traffic controllers have gone over a month without pay, forcing them to resort to donating plasma or driving for DoorDash and Uber to pay their bills.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Airlines&rsquo; reduced flight schedules cannot <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/air-travel-woes-to-linger-even-after-government-shutdown-ends\/\" title=\"Air ... woes to linger even after ... ...\">immediately bounce back<\/a> to full capacity right after the government reopens.
