The FAA is set to announce temporary flight cuts at Newark Liberty Airport, after extensive meetings with airlines to address congestion and operational challenges. Proposed measures will limit arrivals to 28 aircraft per hour during runway construction until mid-June, aiming to enhance safety and reliability amidst recent telecom outages and delays. Feedback from major airlines like United is contributing to this decision, emphasizing the need for operational adjustments to alleviate the chaotic conditions at the airport. A final decision on the matter is expected after May 28.
Reducing the number of flights scheduled at Newark will help ensure that we can safely and reliably operate the flights that remain on the schedule, United said Friday.
The FAA plans to make a final determination on arrival rates on or after May 28, proposing a maximum arrival rate of 28 aircraft per hour.
