United Airlines airplanes are stationed at terminal gates at the George Bush Intercontinental Airport on November 06, 2025 in Houston, Texas. US airlines scrambled on Thursday to adjust schedules and respond to anxious travelers after the Trump administration ordered nationwide flight reductions due to a shortage of air traffic controllers during the longest government shutdown in history. The cuts, set to begin Friday, are expected to cancel up to 1,800 flights daily and reduce 268,000 airline seats across the country, according to aviation analytics firm Cirium.
