Hollywood Burbank Airport in Los Angeles had no air traffic controllers in the air traffic control tower for several hours on Monday amid a shortage of them during the federal government shutdown.
From about 4:15 p.m. to 10 p.m., the air traffic control tower was unmanned. Flights out of the airport were delayed an average of two hours and 30 minutes due to the staffing shortage.
