Trader consensus hovers at even odds for over 500 US flight cancellations on March 31 amid ongoing TSA staffing shortages from the prolonged partial government shutdown, with over 450 officers quitting due to unpaid wages and straining security checkpoints during record spring break travel volumes. Recent mid-March blizzards and storms triggered thousands of disruptions, creating backlogs, while FAA forecasts note potential high winds at New York airports and thunderstorms around Chicago, but no major system confirmed for Tuesday. Escalating severe weather at key hubs or further TSA attrition could surge cancellations past 500, whereas a DHS funding deal or benign conditions might stabilize operations below the threshold.
