Passport to Laughter: These Hilarious Airport Pics Are Worth the Layover
A Lingering Reminder of Tragedy
The remains of Dagestan Airlines Flight 372 are still visible from the air as planes soar in and out, serving as a reminder of the tragedy that unfolded in 2010. The crash was caused by engine failure shortly after takeoff, leading to an emergency landing attempt that ended disastrously.
When this photo was taken the wreckage had still not been cleared, perhaps due to investigative, environmental, or bureaucratic reasons. For passengers with a fear of flying, the sight of the wreckage can stir deep anxieties, reminding them of the risks associated with air travel despite it being one of the safest forms of transportation.
