DO NOT travel to Newark Airport any time soon! In the article they explain that the standard is to have FIFTEEN controllers watching the air to make sure you are safe getting in and out of the airport, and that have even 7 controllers that things become dangerous. So the idea of 1 person doing this job that usually takes 15 to do safely?! Absolutely not. Do not risk you or your family's life! Check your layovers and make sure it isn't "EWR". If it is, or if you have plans to travel to New York using this airport any time soon, change your tickets or cancel. Do not take this lightly with chance. I will not be booking any of my clients through this airport until they have all these air traffic control issues (staffing, technical, and otherwise) resolved.
