Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC)

The Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC) is the central hub responsible for coordinating and managing the flow of air traffic across the United States. It helps ensure airline safety and efficiency by balancing air traffic demand with airport and airspace capacity. The center monitors all flights, issues instructions to delay or reroute aircraft when necessary, and communicates with regional control centers. Its goal is to prevent congestion, maintain safety, and keep flights running smoothly, especially during high traffic periods or disruptions like bad weather.
