I’m not a huge fan of airline confrontation videos that are posted on social media with little context, which tell one side of the story. However, I do find police body cam footage of airport situations to be quite interesting, given that we get a sense of what really happened, and they often give us a glimpse into parts of airports we might not otherwise see. Along those lines, here’s an interesting video about a situation that unfolded at a Frontier Airlines check-in desk. While the video is titled “Entitled Brat Attacks Airline Employee After Missing Her Flight,” I think…

This is purely speculation on my part, but am I the only one who thinks this will finally be the week where our aviation ecosystem in the United States “breaks,” and that will move the needle with the government shutdown? United States aviation is reaching a breaking point The government in the United States has now been shut down for 33 days and counting, with no end in sight.
