Jay Ratliff Updates Middle East Flight Disruptions, TSA Pay Issues and Potential U.S. Hub Delays

from WPTF Morning News

Aviation expert Jay Ratliff explains how the Iran situation is forcing airlines to suspend or reroute flights through key Middle East airports, leaving large numbers of travelers stranded and uncertain about when service will resume. He also breaks down what the government shutdown could mean for TSA staffing and security line wait times as agents miss paychecks, and shares what travelers should watch for with possible weather-related hub delays later today, especially in the Northeast.
