Sean Duffy, the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, announced that flights in the United States will be reduced to a minimum level in the lead-up to Thanksgiving due to a staffing crisis in air traffic control. This crisis has been caused by the government shutdown, which has lasted for 40 days, the longest in U.S. history. Major airlines are facing cuts imposed by authorities after experiencing thousands of delays and cancellations that severely affected air traffic over the weekend. Duffy emphasized that the situation will worsen in the weeks leading up to the holiday when millions of Americans travel to celebrate Thanksgiving, scheduled for November 27.
