Aviation regulators say there's been a rapid decline in staffing shortages at air traffic control facilities over the past week.
That's given the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration the confidence that more air traffic controllers are coming to work.
Regulators lowered air traffic reductions at dozens of major airports from 6% of flights to 3% through the weekend, but they did not lift them entirely.
The FAA said the restrictions were necessary to keep the airspace safe as the agency grappled with widespread staffing shortages of air traffic controllers during the government shutdown.
But with the government reopened, air traffic controllers have finally received some of the back pay they earned,
and most are now back on the job.

In 2015 researchers found exposing infants to peanut products early could reduce their risk of becoming allergic.
Health experts then reversed guidance that once called for avoiding peanuts and other potential food allergens.
Researchers now say the change has prevented tens of thousands of peanut allergy cases for young kids in the U.S.
Dr. David Hill led the study, published by the Pediatrics Journal.
He says avoiding peanut allergy is vital because most kids who develop the allergy will never outgrow it.

The year Natalie Grabeau turned 60, she started learning to swim.
But that was 20 years ago.
On Saturday, Grabeau finished the grueling Ironman course in Hawaii.
At 80 years old, she swam more than two miles in the ocean, biked 112 miles, and then ran a marathon-length course.
She set a new record as the oldest female athlete to finish the race.
That brought wide praise for Grabeau, who trains at her local YMCA and a high school track near her home in New Jersey.
