FAA prohibits most private jets at 12 major airports amid shutdown’s air traffic staffing problems

Source: CNBC

“The Federal Aviation Administration on Monday will ‘effectively prohibit business aviation’ at a dozen major U.S. airports, adding to flight restrictions for commercial airlines as air traffic controller shortages snarl travel in the government shutdown, a trade group said. Last week, the Trump administration ordered U.S. commercial airlines to cut their schedules to ease strains on air traffic controllers who are working without their regular paychecks in the shutdown. They didn’t require cuts to private flights, though the air traffic shortages have slowed travel broadly.” (11/10/25)
