联邦航空管理局将在政府停摆期间对40个高流量市场的空中交通量减少10%

摘要

联邦航空管理局宣布,从周五开始,在持续的政府停摆期间,为保障安全,将对40个主要市场的空中交通量减少10%。

联邦航空管理局(FAA)宣布,自周五上午起,将对40个高流量市场的空中交通量减少10%,以确保在持续的政府停摆期间的安全。此举预计将影响全国数千个航班,FAA每天管理超过44,000个航班,包括商业、货运和私人飞机。

自10月1日停摆开始以来,空中交通管制员一直无薪工作,导致美国多个机场出现人员短缺和航班延误。FAA局长布莱恩·贝德福德强调了采取积极措施的必要性,他表示:“我们不能忽视这一点。”

贝德福德与交通部长肖恩·达菲计划与航空公司高管会面,讨论这些减量措施的实施。受影响的具体机场尚未公布,但预计名单将在周四发布。达菲警告称,如果压力持续增加,可能会采取进一步措施。

包括联合航空和美国航空在内的主要航空公司正准备相应调整航班计划。联合航空首席执行官斯科特·柯比表示,航空公司将重点减少不在枢纽间飞行的区域和国内主线航班,同时保持长途国际航班和枢纽间航班的正常运营。受取消影响的客户将获得改签或退款选项。

航空业和工会继续敦促国会解决停摆问题,以防止进一步的干扰。FAA警告称,如果停摆持续,可能需要采取额外措施以维护安全和运营效率。
