Flight disruptions across the US are on track to intensify this week as the Federal Aviation Administration increases flight restrictions at 40 major airports. Airlines were required to cut 4% of flights starting Friday, a move intended to reduce stress on air traffic controllers, who have been working without pay since the government shutdown began last month. The restrictions will increase to 10% by Friday, with the potential for deeper cuts as Thanksgiving approaches—the period that typically sees the heaviest travel.
