Airline Fatalities Jumped 300% in 2024…
A new report shows airline fatalities jumped by over 300% in 2024.

A new report from the International Air Transport Association’s 2024 safety report shows airline fatalities jumped by over 300% in 2024 compared to the year before.
Now, that sounds huge — and it is — but here’s the catch: 2023 was one of the safest years on record, so the numbers had nowhere to go but up.
Even with the spike, flying is still incredibly safe — the risk of a fatal accident is about 1 in 13 million flights.
Most of the incidents were tied to things like mid-air collisions, runway errors, and tech interference.
So yes, the spike is real — but no, it’s not as bad as it sounds.
Personally, I am far less concerned about dying or crashing and far more annoyed with all the delays, cancellations and disruptions.
Take it from someone who travels dang near every week, it’s a game of Russian Roulette if you’ll actually make it to your destination within 5 hours of when you are supposed to.
Secretary Duffy has a lot on his plate!
