FAA to investigate airlines that did not comply with shutdown flight cuts
by Reuters Nov 25, 2025
The Federal Aviation Administration will send investigative letters to airlines that did not comply with required flight cuts at 40 major airports prompted by air traffic control safety concerns during the government shutdown, the agency said on Monday.
"We will be sending out letters of investigation to any of the airlines who we don't feel lived up to the requirement to reduce capacity," FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford said at a news conference at Newark airport. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said airlines must comply with FAA orders. "If those airlines did not comply ... there should be accountability," he said at the event.
