    Who would want to fly to the States right now? When there is an increased chance of getting arrested for something, anything and thrown in jail.

    How many Americans want to fly right now? They can’t afford it.

        Definitely not … I’m 100% Indigenous Canadian and I was born and raised here … but I’m a brown long haired Native guy and I would not go into the US right now.

        If you’re white you have a good chance of nothing happening … but a higher chance than ever before of being arrested because of something border guards read on your mobile phone or social media posts.

    That’s how markets should work, yes. When supply exceeds demand, prices should drop. We’ve had issues of this not happening because companies just hold the market hostage, but I’m hoping that the current situation causes all sellers and producers to be more market-reactive.

    Awful airport experience. Ticket systems from the 80s. Few plane crashes here and there. Boeing.

    Why would anyone fly into our inside the US right now?
