How will the government shutdown effect the prices and readibility of airline tickets?

I plan on flying to Phoenix very soon. I plan to buy the ticket in the next few weeks. However, the government shutdown continues to persist and if it continues it will effect the jobs and pay of many TSA and Air flight controllers Will this make it harder to get airline tickets or make prices go way up in the near future?

The government shutdown will have no bearing on the price or availability of airline tickets.

NEAR future do not expect price hikes.
Could flights be cancelled due to lack of staff in MANY positions? YES.

The readability of your ticket has not much to do with the government.

TSA and Air flight controllers are just TWO of the jobs Federal staff work at Airports. Many more associated with Air Travel.

None, the government doesn't run the airlines.
