Dallas-Fort Worth is one of the busiest airports in the country, and during the holidays, you can feel it. About 80% of flights arrived on time last November, which isn’t bad given the sheer volume here. However, with more than 42 million passengers a year, small interruptions can snowball.
Airports were already dealing with staffing shortages before the government shutdown. Now, after more than a month without pay, workers are stretched thin.
While the ongoing government shutdown has impacted staffing operations at many major airports across the United States, including in Boston, the delays and cancellations at Logan are related to the wind, a Massport spokesperson told Boston 25 News.
The Boise Airport is organizing a community food drive to help federal employees and airport staff impacted by the shutdown and SNAP food benefits delays.
The Federal Aviation Administration has announced ground delays at both Bush Intercontinental Airport and Hobby Airport due to staffing.
