(251108) -- ARLINGTON, Nov. 8, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Nov. 7, 2025 shows a flight information board at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Virginia, the United States. Over 1,000 U.S. flights were canceled on Friday as a reduction in air traffic took effect amid an air traffic controller staffing shortage during the longest federal government shutdown in U.S. history.
U.S. flight-tracking website FlightAware showed that as of 5 p.m. Friday, 4,309 flights had been delayed and 1,002 canceled.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Friday that flight reductions could go as high as 20 percent if the government shutdown drags on. (Xinhua/Hu Yousong)
