Americans’ confidence in air travel falls after string of plane crashes, poll shows

A recent poll by AP-NORC reveals a decline in Americans' confidence in air travel, with 64% believing it is safe, down from 71% last year. This drop follows several high-profile crashes in 2025, including a fatal collision over Washington, D.C., a commuter plane crash in Alaska, and a Delta crash-landing in Toronto. Google searches for air travel safety have surged, and confidence in pilots, air traffic controllers, and the federal government has decreased. Additionally, the Trump administration has reduced FAA staff, though air traffic controllers were spared.
