Angle: Do the increasing cases of air traffic controllers falling asleep cause fear in travelers


Hunter:
Do the increasing cases of air traffic controllers falling asleep cause fear why or why not?
Yea it causes fear because you don’t know how many people are in the tower or if their awake.
Are you less likely to travel this summer then you were before these events began to occur? Why or why not?
I am still going to travel because it is easy transportation and less accidents still occur then in cars
Do events like 9-11 deter you from travelling?
No because security has gotten a lot better over the years and things like these are less likely to occur.


Garrett:
Are you traveling this summer? If so were to?
My planes are not currently made up and if I do travel I gotta travel but I don’t know if I am traveling
Do the increasing cases of air traffic controllers falling asleep cause fear why or why not?
No because if I gotta travel I gotta travel
Would things like increasing flight prices deter you from traveling?
No, because sometimes I just have to travel and sacrifices have to be made
