Washington, Nov 5 (EFE). - U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced this Wednesday that he will reduce operations by 10% at 40 major airports in the country starting this Friday if the government shutdown persists.
"One of the measures will be a 10% reduction in capacity at 40 of our locations. This decision is based on data, depending on which airline has more flights and where the pressure on the system is concentrated," Duffy explained after noting that about 2,000 more air traffic controllers are needed to operate normally.
