Delays at New York airports due to FAA Staffing issues. Has happened before, especially in the summer vacation periods, since no one wants to work at New York Center, but the media is trying to blame this one the Shutdown.

Union Organized sick-out to create a narrative for the weekend?

Correction: It is DC Center with the staffing shortage.
Now I really think this could be an organized sick-out.

When congress can no longer fly around the problem will be quickly fixed. Anything that impacts them gets their full attention.

The nerve of these guys to expect paychecks.

Mick Mulvaney can do the job!

“Delays” or “Halts”? Misleading headline.

Ground stop lifted. Delay program now in place. So, just a normal day at LaGuardia, though the media will repeat this for hours, trying to blame it on Trump.

Either the headline changed or you got it wrong...but go back to the link, just minor delays.

Perhaps have it corrected by the mods.

Looks like the headline changed, as the URL definitely says “halts”.

Thanks. I didn’t think he was trying to dramatize what was going on, or he would have started it with BOOM!!! or something.

Every plane that doesn’t land on US soil is one less turd world passenger bringing in some awful disease.

Is there anyone alive today who actually remembers when LGA flights weren't delayed?

Staff the NYC and San Francisco airports at lower levels due to the shut down and see how fast Pelosi and Schumer cave.
