Do Expect Major Delays at the Airport

 

Furloughs that will affect air traffic controllers are part of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) budget cuts.  Delays are expected to be up to 90 minutes at the airports. Employees will lose a paid day bi-weekly. Not only will there be delays, but risking passengers safety is a concern. Air traffic controllers are forced to work less days and this will cause delays and even cancellation of flights.  Los Angeles International did encounter 3 hours and 7 minute delays on Sunday evening.
