The bad economy will translate into 7 percent fewer air travelers -- about 14 million less than last year -- in the skies this summer on U.S. carriers, the Air Transport Association of America says.

Despite the recession dip, the industry warns that with fewer planes flying under the reduced demand, many aircraft will still be packed and the potential for air-traffic, equipment and summer-weather delays remains as high as in past seasons.
