FAA: SLC Among Airports That No Longer Have Flight Cuts

(Salt Lake City, UT) — Salt Lake City International should have fewer problems today because the FAA ended a flight reduction emergency order. The U-S Transportation Secretary says the order ended today at 4 a.m. Mountain Time. That means the government is no longer requiring some flights to be cancelled. A reduction in flights at 40 major airports nationwide began a week ago and caused problems at airports large and small. It was designed to address fatigue and staffing issues among air traffic controllers during the longest federal government shutdown in history. There still might be some delays or cancellations, but they are no longer being ordered by the government.
