The number of cancellations from US airports has exceeded 1,400, with the total expected to grow. Imposed government cuts to daily flight volumes are set to begin increasing, with airlines required to cancel a certain percentage of their services. US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that the stress on the US national air traffic system will continue to grow ahead of the busy Thanksgiving travel season. Bloomberg's Siddharth Philip joined Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on 'Bloomberg Businessweek Daily' to break it down. (Source: Bloomberg)
