Air Travel Delays at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas

Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas experienced massive delays due to chronic understaffing at the FAA's air traffic control tower, with only 32 of the required 60 positions filled. This is part of a pattern of air travel setbacks, including similar issues at Newark Airport. The Trump administration blames the problems on 'antiquated' FAA systems, despite firing hundreds of air traffic controllers earlier.
