This is because the fuckers- the GOP Senators like CRUZ refused to listen to Don Breyer etc about how crowded that airport has become. They want to zip down GWP from work to fly to their mansions in TX

I fly American almost exclusively & search for the DCA connection routes as they’re usually the shortest duration trips for me.

I have a non trivial number of flights coming up - through DCA on AA regional jets 🥴

You couldn’t pay me to fly right now.

Even though Dump said “It’ll cost you $2 to fly, it’ll cost you nothing”?

stlprogressive.bsky.social•16 days ago

Even then. I’d make an exception for the UK, though. I’d chance that. 🤣

I don’t like to fly anyway.

How about the last 9 days. Pretty sure it’s unprecedented and getting worse

Didn’t orange call them and give them a pep talk (after he went swimming)?

Sending FAA employees multiple buyout emails without any filtering was insane and a complete lack of thought about who your employees are, what types of jobs they do and what they’re dealing with. We don’t need stressed out ATC’s worried about their jobs.

Their one and only goal is to eviscerate government.

This man is pure poison to our economy. Dear god!

I had read that they had asked for less traffic, but actually got more traffic, just prior to the crash, so now I wonder if the traffic level is back to what it was before that change.
