The FAA is taking action to mitigate risks from controller fatigue. I will immediately implement longer rest periods for controllers between shifts based on recommendations from a panel on ATC fatigue. Read my full statement and the report at faa.gov/newsroom/state….
Hiring new controllers is one of our major priorities. We are encouraging anyone interested in a new challenge to take a shot at this exciting and rewarding safety career. Find out if you meet the qualifications at faa.gov/be-atc.

Drone pilots: The FAA has flight restrictions in place around the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. Do not interfere with rescue operations. If you fly, emergency response operations cannot. bit.ly/3PEpqmt #NoDroneZone
My message to the flying public: Flying is still the safest way to travel. We are working vigilantly to make sure it stays that way.

General aviation is an important part of our system. I talked to @FAASafetyBrief about the FAA’s plans to encourage a robust GA ecosystem and how safety will always be my principal focus.

A safe National Airspace System begins and ends on the airport surface. Providing air traffic controllers with tools such as Approach Runway Verification will improve their situational awareness of the airport surface which is paramount to improving safety.

As we increase the number of [space flight participants], the level of safety needs to meet the mission. In fact the public will demand you meet this mission. The good news is this is entirely in your control." - FAA Administrator, Mike Whitaker at #CST2024

Hiring more air traffic controllers is a priority. We need more entry points for candidates, and this enhanced training program is an additional avenue to get controllers into facilities sooner.

I met with airline CEOs today to discuss the current state of the U.S. aviation system and find ways to continuously improve safety. Meeting read out: faa.gov/newsroom/read-…
I spoke to @SquawkCNBC about our oversight of Boeing. Safety will continue to drive decisions around the MAX-9. Part of that is adding more inspectors to make sure those airplanes are being produced safely. youtu.be/-I5humpGIMU
Today @FAA_Mike testifies before the U.S. Committee on House Transportation & Infrastructure about the state of American aviation and the FAA. Watch live at youtube.com/watch?v=vjUgcg….
“We’re looking at the production system from nose to tail, wingtip to wingtip,” says FAA Administrator Michael Whitaker. “All we want is for Boeing to make safe airplanes and then they can produce as many as they can produce.”
The FAA works with law enforcement agencies to pursue penalties against people who deliberately aim a laser at an aircraft. This dangerous crime puts lives at risk. If you witness someone shining a laser at an aircraft, report it to local authorities and the FAA.

Deputy Secretary Polly Trottenberg celebrated a major milestone in that mission—welcoming the first transatlantic flight by a commercial airliner using 100% sustainable aviation fuel.
This year, we saw the lowest flight cancellation rates since 2018. Our department will continue to improve air travel for all Americans and help ensure that airlines treat passengers fairly. thepointsguy.com/news/pete-butt…
We've worked hard to get flight cancellation rates lower than pre-pandemic levels and strengthen rights for passengers. Today, @SecretaryPete and @FAA_Mike shared progress on air travel ahead of the upcoming holiday season.
Listen to our @FAANews Administrator. Fly safe and fly kind. It is the way. Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and thank you for your leadership @FAA_Mike ✈️ He’s looking out for all of us, folks. 🙏 🦃
If you’re flying, please be nice to your flight crew. They are there for your safety. The FAA has zero tolerance for unruly behavior.
