9/11 Impact on Air Travel

                After 9-11-01, the United States was getting less people flying in from overseas. They also got stricter on the security requirements for checking visas.  Studies showed that pre-9/11 air travel never returned to its’ original trend after the tragedy took place until 2004. Major airlines declared bankruptcy after 9/11. The airline industry was already in trouble before September 11^th had happened.  Items banned from air travel include any sharp objects, sporting goods, guns, tools, martial arts weapons, and any other dangerous objects. After this event, U.S airlines laid off 80,000 workers. 9/11 had a major effect on the economy and the airlines are still recovering from the $7+ billion they lost.
