Delta Airlines Is Giving Up on
 [The Street] Recently, the Federal Aviation Administration urged airlines to cut back on the amount of flights they offer by up to 10% at some of the nation’s busiest airports due to a lack of in air-traffic controllers.Air-Traffic Control school 'be hard.' VERY hard. Thanks to a lack of pilots and other airport workers, a casualty of the buyouts and early retirements that airlines offered employees during the pandemic, there was an unusually high number of delays and cancellations last year. In an effort to prevent that from happening this summer, and as a way to ease overall congestion, the FAA has been urging airlines to cut back a bit. Now, Delta (DAL) - Get Free Report has announced that it has removed two more cities from its schedule of flights, bringing its total number of cut flights to 17. Starting on June 5, Delta will no longer fly to La Crosse, Wisconsin, and State College, Pennsylvania. At the moment, as noted by The Point Guy, the airline offers once-daily flights between Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) and La Crosse Regional Airport (LSE), as well as twice-daily flights from LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to University Park Airport (SCE) near State College. Delta says the cuts are temporary, and that it will notify anyone affected by this change. It said they will be "accommodated accordingly." Posted by: Besoeker 2023-04-05 |
