I know stats don't help most people relax about air travel when it seems like accidents are clustering, but the stats are calming for me, so here they are.
For American drivers, there's one passenger vehicle injury per 2 million miles traveled. Given ~37 miles a day is the driving average, it means a typical American driver should expect one injury every 150 years of life.
For US flyers, the average is about 14 billion miles flown for every 1 air travel injury. If cars were that safe, there would be one driving injury every 1 million years of typical commuting—a period of time longer than the existence of the homo sapien species.
The new terminal will provide a world-class experience for travelers, rivaling the top airports in the world✈️
