American families are getting ripped off at airports across the country. Flight cancellations jumped 17 percent this year compared to last year. Nearly two out of every hundred flights get canceled, and delays are hitting over a quarter of all flights.
The numbers tell the ugly truth about what Biden’s America has done to air travel. JetBlue cancels more than one-third of their flights during busy summer months. Southwest and American Airlines are nearly as bad, leaving hardworking Americans stranded at gates.
Our government agencies have completely failed the American people. The Federal Aviation Administration sits in their comfortable offices while families miss weddings, business deals fall apart, and vacation dreams get crushed. These bureaucrats face zero consequences when flights get canceled.
Air traffic controller shortages are crippling our airports, but nobody in Washington seems to care. The FAA’s outdated equipment keeps breaking down, causing massive delays that ripple across the entire country. Meanwhile, government workers collect their paychecks while Americans suffer.
Airlines are now padding their flight schedules to hide how bad things really are. They build in extra time so delays look smaller than they actually are. This deceptive practice costs passengers six billion dollars every year in wasted time.
The East Coast airports are disasters, with cancellation rates worse than anywhere else in America. Boston to Atlanta, working families face the highest chance of having their travel plans destroyed. Liberal-run cities can’t even keep their airports running properly.
Harvard researchers discovered that three-hour delays are four times more common now than thirty years ago. America used to have the best aviation system in the world. Now we can’t even get planes off the ground on time because of government incompetence.
Real leadership could fix these problems fast, but it requires someone willing to take on the bureaucrats and put America first. Until we get serious about holding the FAA accountable, American travelers will keep paying the price for government failure. Our families deserve better than this broken system.
