Tens of thousands of people on trips organized by German travel agencies have been affected by US-Israel war with Iran, a leading trade group said on Monday. Figures from the German Travel Association suggest that some 30,000 tourists are unable to fly home amid the hostilities, which have prompted several countries in the region to close their airspace, while many airlines have put flights into and out of the crisis area on hold.

These viral travel hacks known as airport theory, seat squatting, and check-in chicken are creating significant problems for airline staff while potentially leading to expensive consequences for passengers who attempt them. Aviation industry professionals warn that despite their popularity on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, these trends often backfire, leaving travelers stranded, embarrassed, or facing unexpected costs.

JetBlue will cease operations at Miami International Airport on Sept. 3 due to poor financial performance, focusing on Fort Lauderdale-Hollywoood International Airport instead.
