Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced Wednesday that there will be a 10% reduction in flights at 40 major airports starting Friday, Nov. 7 due to impacts from the ongoing federal government shutdown.

Duffy did not specify when the reductions would end. The change will potentially impact thousands of flights, though the details of how many and which specific airports will be cut was not announced.

The drastic plan for flight reductions sent airlines scrambling to make significant reductions in flights in just 36 hours and passengers flooded airline customer service hotlines with concerns about air travel in the coming days. United Airlines, for example, promised refunds to customers who did not want to fly under these imposed restrictions.
