Airlines are cutting flights starting Nov. 7 under a new FAA order tied to the government shutdown. Here’s what United, Southwest and American travelers need to know

The FAA has reduced flights at major airports, blaming the federal government shutdown. What happens if airlines cancel your flight.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced this week that it would direct airlines to reduce their flying schedules in a way that results in a 10% reduction in air travel across 40 airports nationwide.

Officials say the move is in response to mounting pressure on air traffic controllers who've gone without pay as the shutdown continues.
