Waiting a while at airports has, unfortunately, become a fact of life. Most people expect to have to wait in some sort of line while getting ready to board their flight… but the recent conditions at New York’s LaGuardia airport and others around the country have been something else entirely.
In recent days, as the result of a staffing shortage due to the partial federal government shutdown, those flying out of the iconic airport have been enduring hours-long lines to even get through security. On top of that, LaGuardia was closed for several hours on Monday morning, after a deadly collision between an Air Canada plane and a fire truck on Sunday night.
