However, it will take time for some operations to return to normal, like air traffic control. The Salt Lake City International Airport says flight reductions remain at 6%. That’s below the previously planned 8% reduction Thursday and 10% cut Friday.

Thursday, 31 flights to and from Salt Lake were cut, many from Sky West Airlines. Friday, that number was down to 12 incoming and outgoing flights canceled.

The airport says it could take a couple of weeks for air traffic to return to normal.
