Back To Normal: FAA Ends Flight Reductions As ATC Numbers Stabilize

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has lifted its restrictions on flights at 40 major airports in the United States, putting an end to 10 days of enforced flight cuts. With the recent government shutdown — the longest ever in US history at 43 days — ending on November 12, airlines are now returning to pre-shutdown levels. Restrictions had already been halved by this weekend and have now been lifted entirely as of Monday morning.
