Many travelers still prioritize the cost of travel over which airplane they will fly in.

In 2000, Bill Clinton signed a law that banned smoking on all domestic and international flights to and from the U.S.

A door plug recently blew off a Max 9 plane, prompting concerns about whether fliers should board these planes.

International airfare is up 10% from last year, while domestic airfare is down more than 10%, according to the travel site Hopper.

Aviation company Surf Air Mobility is developing an electric engine to power planes during short jaunts. But the market is still untested.
