US officials warned that the number of flight cancellations may need to double if the government shutdown drags out and air-traffic controller staffing shortages worsen, potentially escalating travel disruptions as the country heads into one of its busiest travel seasons.
US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on Fox News Friday that regulators will continue to assess the strain on the aviation system and if the data moves in the wrong direction, the current plan to reduce flights by 10% by the end of next week could grow to 15% or even 20%.
With hundreds of services already trimmed and more on the way, air travel has become a flash point in the long-simmering clash between Republicans and Democrats over federal funding as President Donald Trump ramps up pressure to forge a deal.
The Republican-led administration has said the reductions are necessary to keep flying safe as staffing shortages strain resources. At least one top congressional Democrat has called for more transparency to ensure the move isn’t politically motivated.
Today's show features:

  • Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Aerospace, Defense & Airlines Analyst George Ferguson on the broader impact of the shutdown on the US airline industry
  • Karin Kimbrough, Chief Economist at LinkedIn, on the health of the US labor market
  • Alexis Browne Roberts, COO & Portfolio Manager at Alexis Investment Partners, on whether market valuations are being stretched
  • Rick Smith, CEO of Axon, on this week’s quarterly earnings report and stock swings since the company announced the $625 million acquisition for Carbyne
