What is Safer to Fly or Drive?
A lot more people are getting a phobea of flying and I believe this is due down to the amount of air disasters that are occuring. People have always stated that air travel is the safest way to travel, but is that still the case.
The inflation in low costs airlines have seen a reduction in the amount of servicing an aeroplane actually receives. This has all led to many more delays. An actual true story of my own was that I was about to leave the UK to go on holiday when the plane was initially delayed for two hours, simply because they could not get the doors open to offload the previous passengers. Because they were running late as soon as they offloaded the passengers, they put us on the aeroplane as fast as possible so that hey could get back and pick up more passengers.
But what happened was that in mid air the engines stopped working and caused us to make and emergency landing, which was a very scary experience. So is air travel really as safe as driving new cars? In my opinion it is not, basically if you are involved in a car collision then you are less likely to die. But if you are unlucky enough to be involved in an air collision then you are highly likely not to survive.
As I have previously stated above, one of the main causes of this was simply due down to the fact that airlines charge so little that they want to do as many trips as they possibly can to earn more money. So instead of giving the jets a break and getting them serviced they are instead non stop being used to garner money.
