If your business travel plans involve flights during the winter holidays, be aware of the anticipated surge in passengers flying this season after last year’s COVID lockdowns. The situation may mean added congestion across the national airspace system, and while business aviation has never been a congestion driver, delays may impact your planning.
In this episode of NBAA’s “Flight Plan” podcast, host Rob Finfrock speaks with:
- John Kosak, Program Manager, Weather and Air Traffic Management Specialist, NBAA Air Traffic Services
- Jason Rooks, FAA National Operations Manager
- Dean Snell, Manager, NBAA Air Traffic Services
The NBAA Flight Plan podcast, which ran from 2009 to 2025, provided an overview of important developments affecting NBAA members, and the association’s work to advocate for their interest. The archive of past episodes will remain available for your enjoyment. Please note that no new episodes will be released.
