The Trump administration has announced, a 10 percent decrease in air traffic across 40 major locations in the US, a move set to begin Friday. The government shutdown has resulted in delays and longer security lines at airports, with widespread impact anticipated if it continues. Officials stress this is a proactive, gradual effort, starting with a partial cut and ramping up to the full 10% by next week.
Airlines are preparing for mass cancellations and rerouting, especially in regions such as New York, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, and other high-traffic zones.
