联邦航空管理局因政府停摆下令减少航班

摘要

由于持续的政府停摆导致人员短缺,联邦航空管理局已要求美国主要机场减少航班。

联邦航空管理局(FAA)已指示航空公司从周五开始在美国40个主要机场减少航班,初步削减4%,并将在11月14日前逐步增加至10%,以应对因持续政府停摆引发的人员短缺问题。

交通部长肖恩·达菲表示,这些措施旨在减轻自10月1日停摆开始以来一直无薪工作的空中交通管制员的压力。

包括联合航空和达美航空在内的主要航空公司已开始执行这些航班减少计划。联合航空计划从周五至周日削减约4%的航班,相当于其每日4500个航班中取消不到200个。达美航空因旅行需求减少,周五取消约170个航班,周六取消的航班数量较少。

FAA的命令影响了包括亚特兰大、达拉斯、丹佛、洛杉矶和夏洛特等主要枢纽在内的二十多个州的机场。

空中交通管制员和运输安全管理局(TSA)人员在停摆期间被要求无薪工作,导致缺勤率上升和运营压力加大。

旅游业和航空工会正敦促国会解决预算僵局,以防止进一步的中断。

随着停摆持续,FAA警告称,如果人员问题持续,航班减少幅度可能达到20%。
