The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) has secured additional privacy protections for former Spirit Airlines employees following its objections to a proposed $10 million sale of company data to Google during the airline's bankruptcy proceedings. The agreement excludes 20 categories of sensitive employee information, including medical and disability records, payroll details, disciplinary files, crew information and aviation safety reports. Other employee data will undergo de-identification under international privacy standards, with independent verification and restrictions preventing Google from attempting to identify individuals. Following the agreement, AFA-CWA and other labour unions withdrew their objections to the proposed transaction. The development addresses concerns over how former employees' personal and professional records could be handled as Spirit's business data changes ownership.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating a near midair incident involving Air France Flight AF28 and American Airlines Flight AA1660 at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on 7 November 2026. According to the FAA, the Air France aircraft made an unauthorized turn after departure, entering the flight path of another aircraft taking off from a parallel runway. Air traffic controllers issued corrective instructions to both aircraft to maintain separation. ATC recordings also capture the controller questioning the Air France crew about its assigned departure procedure and subsequently informing them that the incident would be reported as a possible pilot deviation.

Dubai Airports CEO Paul Griffiths has said that physical passports could become unnecessary for international air travel within the next five years, as biometric technology becomes more widely adopted. He said the technology is already available, but its implementation will depend on cooperation between governments, airlines and airports. Dubai is already expanding biometric processing at Dubai International Airport (DXB), where more than 200 biometric cameras have been installed across Terminal 3. Registered passengers can use facial recognition at participating check in, immigration and boarding points. Griffiths said common digital identity standards between countries remain the biggest challenge. He also believes travellers could eventually use a single digital identity throughout their journey, from airport procedures to hotel check ins and car rentals.
