美国主要机场空中交通管制人员短缺导致航班严重延误
摘要
包括洛杉矶国际机场和圣地亚哥国际机场在内的美国主要机场，由于联邦政府持续关闭，空中交通管制人员短缺，导致航班出现严重延误。
包括洛杉矶国际机场（LAX）和圣地亚哥国际机场在内的美国主要机场，由于联邦政府持续关闭，空中交通管制人员短缺，导致航班出现严重延误。联邦航空管理局（FAA）报告称，这些延误预计将持续，LAX预计在晚上8点至10点之间，进港航班延误近1.5小时，圣地亚哥国际机场预计在晚上9点至10点之间延误约1小时20分钟。
FAA将这些延误归因于人员配备问题，特别指出圣地亚哥国际机场的塔台人员短缺。当前的联邦政府关闭始于2025年10月1日，导致约90万联邦雇员被迫休假，其中包括许多空中交通管制员。虽然关键岗位人员在关闭期间必须无薪工作，但由此产生的人员短缺已导致全国范围内的航空旅行中断。
除了LAX和圣地亚哥的延误外，全国其他主要机场也受到影响。新泽西的纽瓦克自由国际机场延误更为严重，航班平均延误超过3.5小时，预计在东部时间晚上7点至8点之间延误将达到4.5小时。FAA警告称，随着关闭持续，旅客应预期因空中交通管制人员短缺而带来的进一步中断。
