Americas governmental shutdown is having big impacts on airports
The governmental shutdown in America continues.
Because of this there has not been enough air traffic controllers to ensure the safety of aircrafts.
At airports in states such as California, Arizona, and Colorado, control towers have closed or been slow in starting their work.
At Burbank airport, piolets have always contacted the control tower but now they are receiving the response: "the control tower is closed".
Due to this, piolets have had to maneuver aircrafts in a particular way.
which has resulted in delays of up to 2 and a half hours are Burbank airport.
The airports of Denver and New York have also had times with no air traffic controllers, meaning planes could not depart.
The role of air traffic controller is such an important one, so even during the governmental shutdown they have had to work, but they are not receiving any salary.
Additionally, the number of air traffic controllers are few, so even if only a few are on holiday it can become a bit problem.
An air traffic controller representative said that "everyone is working their absolute hardest, but now we are not being paid."
If the governmental shutdown continues, there will most likely be an even larger effect on travelling and the safe operations of aircrafts.
