Having the public lose trust in the safety of flying is absolutely not something you want to happen. This could have devastating effects and I think enough is enough and the government needs to step in and take over running the airlines. It's too important to leave gold hoarding dragons in charge of it.

Silver lining: less flights booked means less emissions for the environment.

That’s not a silver lining at all. Jets are actually very fuel efficient compared to driving when they’re full of passengers.

One less plane in the air could potentially mean 300+ more cars on the road. Not a great outcome.
