There’s been a shortage of controllers for years.

But looking ahead, poor consumer sentiment and safety concerns could weigh on bookings.

In May, the FAA said it was short 3,000 controllers. One factor in that: all air traffic controllers have to train at a single FAA academy in Oklahoma City.

The goal: an electric aircraft that can take off and land vertically.

Some airlines are pinning some of the blame for recent delays on the Federal Aviation Administration.

The FAA has asked airlines to give up precious landing slots.

The aviation industry’s troubles come down to three problems, one analyst says: capacity, captains and cancellations.

Most incidents involve face masks, but alcohol plays a big role too.

In November, a warning from the Federal Aviation Administration about safety concerns led to AT&T and Verizon postponing the launch.

In addition to reducing wait times, the FAA estimates this will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
