Someone at the White House is suggesting airlines pass the hat when The plane lands so air traffic controllers can get paid. You don’t have to cough up $ if the plane doesn’t make it. You can also tip TSA agents as well. You may just get a pass on that suspicious carry on bag.

CSteph90 That's a big wow

I’ll be damned if I fly anywhere in this country and the govermentshutdown has failed to pay air traffic controllers AND TSA...

Life happens

Impeach Trump now.

Tough shit.

Then they need to be talking to Nancy and Chuck, don’t you think!

As the overwhelming majority of problematic immigrants come in on airplanes, Trump is shooting us and himself in the foot with this shut down. Screw the wal,l we need active TSA and traffic controllers.

They should strike.

Trump's flight of fancy with the Wall has now made everyone else's flights more dangerous.

The house ways and means committee can allocate emergency funds to pay people. Maxine waters is the chair person. Talk to Congress.

If we shutdown air traffic in, out and around the US we would be helping clean the air, if only for a short time. Plus it’s kind of it’s own border patrol. No planes, no people.

FakeNews They will. Just delayed.

Here's an opportunity for that union to grow some muscle.

Im not flying because of Trumps dangerous policy of screaming lies like a SPOILED CHILD for a fantasy promise.. I weep for americans who believed his bullshet

Can the air traffic controllers send him to Mexico instead of Texas?

He is placing his base and their votes above all Americans. CNN bpolitics TexasTribune thehill ninakcarroll NBCNews ABC CBS

Jeez,... If I were an air traffic controller... What would I do now?

Time for privatization

Maybe the airlines should close up !

As someone who is sat in an airport about to board a flight I am not comforted by this news. The TSA security check I just had was pretty quick as well ...

I honestly don't blame the folks who quit and go get other jobs due to the TrumpShutdown. Anyone defending this mess is culpable for the resulting safety issues. GOPLeader GOPChairwoman senatemajldr

Easy fix for these workers. Call Nancy & Chuck, tell them to fund border security & everyone will get paid quickly. ICareMoreAboutDeadAmericansThanMissedPaychecks
