Air traffic controllers are coping with grueling six-day workweeks, mandatory overtime and chronic understaffing — all while working without pay.

TSA staffing shortages from the government shutdown are causing 3-hour waits at major U.S. airports. Travelers should arrive early and check flights.

At least two Canadian airports, in Kelowna, B.C., and Winnipeg, are so short of air traffic controllers (ATCs) that they have had to occasionally shut down their towers.
