The cap on flights will keep people safe and alleviate delays attributed to "staffing and equipment" problems, the FAA said.

Just when you thought the turbulence at Newark Liberty International Airport might clear up, spoiler alert: It’s sticking around through 2025. The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed on Friday that flight caps at the embattled New Jersey airport will continue into next year in an effort to ease congestion and prevent the travel chaos that’s plagued travelers since spring.

Flight restrictions at Newark Liberty International Airport will remain in place until the end of 2025 to ensure safety and reduce delays due to air traffic control equipment and staffing issues, with limits on arrivals and departures per hour and adjustments for construction.
