“Flight delays have been reported throughout the United States for a second day due to staffing issues at airports as the government shutdown continues. The National Air Traffic Controllers Association called on its 20,000 members on Tuesday to remain on the job. ‘We’re asking America’s air traffic controllers, who get 45,000 U.S. flights safely to their destinations every day, to work without pay,’ it said in a statement on X. ‘Congress must #EndtheShutdown.’ … A ground stop was issued for flights late Tuesday at Nashville International Airport while delays were announced throughout Tuesday evening and day at international airports in Chicago, Boston, Newark, Orlando and Denver.” (10/08/25)
