FAA reviews Newark delays. The Federal Aviation Administration is holding a two-day meeting with major airlines this week to discuss its proposal to cut flights at Newark Liberty International Airport in order to address major delays. The meeting in Washington comes as a series of equipment outages and staffing issues plaguing the airport – one of the United States’ busiest and located in the New York metro area – have caused travel chaos. The FAA also cited ongoing runway construction at Newark that regularly forces the cancellation of dozens of flights daily and delays hundreds more.
