Shutdown forces 10% flight cuts at 40 airports, including New York, Washington and LA – Full List

Four major airports in New York City are likely to face flight delays and cancellations as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proceeds to reduce 10% of the United States’ airline capacity. This comes as staff shortages continue to hamper the agency’s operations amid the historic US government shutdown.

According to a report by CBS, four New York airports — Newark Liberty, JFK, LaGuardia and Teterboro — will face flight cancellations and delays as part of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s promise to keep American travellers safe in the sky.
