I can recommend Aerolineas Argentinas and Air ZimbabweThis is why I only fly Spirit. You know half the engines are inoperable on your plane in advance so there's no midflight surprise nonsense like this.

Remember that time the train fell into alligator infested waters and.... oh, never mind. Enjoy your trip!Yet another reason why I'm probably not flying again.
No, not scared to fly, but between the airport security bull****, and that, **** no.
Only time I might fly is if I ever make that trip to Tokyo. If I want to go across the country, I have a first class ticket on a train.

Worse debris I ever got from up above was from a **** bird, if you know what I mean. I was not a happy camper.interesting to see how many folks are spooked about flying ... and how few are spooked about getting hit on the ground by falling debris.
Watch this video from inside the plane. The whole engine cowling is gone, that’s basically the inside of the jet engine you’re looking at, vibrating and shaking, it’s a miracle it didn’t fall off or completely break apart, bringing down the plane with it.
Live Updates: United plane’s engine explodes after takeoff from DIA; debris falls from sky
Large chunks of metal rained down on northwest Denver metro neighborhoods Saturday afternoon after a United Airlines plane reported engine trouble.kdvr.com
Look at this enormous piece of the outside of the engine that tore off and landed in somebody’s front yard.

Much more likely to be a line maintenance issue but honestly too early to tell. There’s so many variables here but I can assure you this wasn’t the boys down at jiffy lube who work on these things.
Lol I’m much more worried about sabotage like the AA mechanic down at Mia within the last year or two. Guy was like 20 years in too.
Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t it a security measure for those planes to run on one engine if need be?I work in aviation. The engine wasn’t going to fall off. Lol scary stuff though. Can’t wait to hear the cause..
That **** happens in the auto shop too. ******* shame.I'm a aircraft engine mechanic. We have a bet in the shop that someone BS'd a recent inspection or that they pushed out a time change to save money
**** yeah!!! I would have probably **** my pants... right thenWell I don’t work in aviation and would probably have a heart attack if I saw that scene unfold from seat 14C of the plane.
Thank the good Lord nothing happened. Bro I always have nightmares of planes ever since I saw 911 live. At 13 I went on a plane wasn't scared or anything but for some reason I always have bad plane dreams lol. Don't know why
