Five Australian women say they were taken off a flight to Sydney at gunpoint by guards and were searched without consent.
An Allegiant Air flight climbed 600 feet to avoid colliding midair with a private jet, according to federal investigators. LiveNOW From FOX's Josh Breslow spoke with Jerrica Thacker, a passenger on board that flight.
Qatar Airways Senior Vice President Matt Raos described the incident, which occurred when authorities were looking for the mother of a newborn baby found abandoned in a Hamad International Airport trash can, as "a one-off incident, a very extreme incident.""We’ve had nothing like it previously in our history and we’re completely committed to ensuring nothing like this ever happens again," Raos told the committee.
Raos said Qatar was "surprised and shocked" that Australia had rejected without explanation its application for additional services to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth which was made on Aug. 22, 2022. "There is no one factor that I would point to that swayed my decision one way or the other," King told reporters.
