Delta Adjusts Flights Due to FAA Directive Starting November 7
Delta Air Lines is following a directive from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the U.S. Department of Transportation to reduce flights at 40 major U.S. airports beginning Friday, November 7.
Reason for Flight Reductions
The reductions aim to address air traffic control staffing shortages caused by the ongoing government shutdown. These measures are necessary to ensure safety throughout the national airspace system.
Customer Communication and Apology
Delta commits to informing customers as early as possible about any flight changes and apologizes for the inconvenience these adjustments may bring.
Delta stated: "We will give customers as much notice as possible about any changes to their flights and apologize for any inconvenience these adjustments may cause."
These efforts highlight Delta's priority to maintain safety while navigating operational challenges.
