(DailyEmailNews.com) – The Biden-Harris administration has scored a new low as the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) incompetence threatens to ruin holiday travel for millions of Americans.
In a stunning admission of its own shortcomings, the FAA has warned that it may need to slow down air traffic during peak holiday travel times due to staffing shortages.
This blunder could not come at a worse time, as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) anticipates a potentially record-breaking holiday travel season.
The northeast, particularly New York, is expected to bear the brunt of these air traffic controller shortages.
The magnitude of the FAA’s failure is staggering. In May, the agency was short about 3,000 air traffic controllers. By September, they had only managed to hire 1,800.
This sluggish hiring pace in the face of a looming crisis is a testament to the inefficiency of government agencies under the Biden-Harris administration.
U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg notes that these could be some of the busiest travel days in U.S. history.
Still, his department has failed to adequately prepare for what has been described as an entirely predictable surge in demand.
Adding insult to injury, American Airlines has introduced technology to prevent passengers from boarding before their assigned group.
Instead of addressing the root causes of travel delays, airlines are now policing their own customers, treating them like unruly children rather than valued patrons.
Some argue that the turmoil is a reminder of the consequences of government overreach and incompetence.
Supporters say market forces and customer satisfaction should drive the private sector, which would never allow such a crucial service to become so understaffed.
Instead, Americans find themselves facing holiday travel chaos under the watchful eye of the Biden-Harris administration.
