so joining me right now is transportation secretary pete buttigieg.e to weather -- >> thank you. >> -- are unavoidable. flight cancellations because of staffing shortages are something very different. we saw that yesterday there were faa staffing issues at o'hare, last week air traffic control staffing shortages causing delays at new york airports. why is this a problem still? >> so, what we're seeing is two things, several things hitting at once. it is not unusual to have weather. there is always weather. but right now when weather hits the system, the system is not able to absorb. it is not able to cope. largely because airlines don't have the staff that they need to adapt and be resilient when there is some kind of curveball or situation. so what we're pressing the airlines to do is twofold. make sure they have the realistic scheduling, adequate staffing so the delays and cancellations don't happen in the first place. secondly, to make sure they're clear and transparent about taking care of customers when there is a disruption that can't be avoided

joining us now, transportation secretary pete buttigieg. good to see you.nd to continue? >> i think so. we don't have a crystal ball, but we have seen a lot of these factors that are helping the oil prices and gas prices settle, and including, by the way, some of the action that the president took earlier this summer, releasing millions of barrels from the oil reserve, working with partner nations, making it easier with ethanol, creating some flexibilities there. but also these global market dynamics that at the moment are helping us continue to move in the right direction. >> now, the counterpoint is that oil prices are still significantly higher than they were a year ago. and so folks are still feeling a lot of pain at the pump. to add that, to add insult to injury, yesterday, opec only increased their production to really minuscule amount. described as a slap in the face. and that's after the president's trip to saudi arabia. what do you have to say about that? >> there is no question that oil prices and gas prices still have a long way to go before they

joining me now is the secretary of transportation pete buttigieg. mr.iday was, what, the second worst day for cancellations since memorial day. you met with the airlines before the fourth of july saying, guys, get your acts together with more realistic scheduling. how have they lived up to that promise? >> well, let me tell you what we saw over the weekend, there was a lot of severe weather and that can happen, but it shouldn't have created the kind of ripple effects through the system that it did. that is something that to me is an indication that we still have not seen the improvements that we need, that the system is very brittle. now, after i brought them together, after the memorial day weekend where we saw a very high number of cancellations i asked them about more realistic schedules, more pilot training because a lot of this actually comes down to staffing shortages. about customer service, when something does happen can you get somebody on the phone. and of course how we can help, anything we can do with what's under the control of the faa, lik
