Episode Description

Today On-Air, Dan and Alex discuss the LaGuardia Air Canada Jazz CRJ-900 collision with a fire truck exposes a US air traffic control system stretched to its breaking point — one controller, alone in the tower, making a split-second mistake no single person should bear. Dan and Alex break down the crash, the systemic failures behind it, and the cascading global impact of the Middle East conflict on aviation: Gulf carrier flight counts, SAS mass cancellations, jet fuel price spikes, Norwegian stepping in, and Asian carriers capitalizing. Plus: Air France KLM and Lufthansa CEO comments calling out Gulf carriers — and why Dan thinks that take is completely off base.
