Airlines are taking steps to ensure they can keep flying even after the outbreak of nuclear wars.
It's a terror in the skies of them.
Flight zero, ni arklay at the day off, Roger, get off my plane, Roger Rogers, what's our vector?
Victor?
Enough is enough?
I have a hand with these mucky pipon snakes on this money.
It's Gary and Shannon's terror in the skies on KFI.
There is an insurance company called Gallagher, the world's largest, largest largest aviation insurance broker and in the old days, back to the nineteen fifties, when airline travel was becoming humongous, at about the same time when there was a threat of nuclear annihilation as more countries were developing and stockpiling nuclear weapons. The policy on the books right now is that in the event of a single nuclear detonation, all
civil aircraft worldwide would be grounded. Based on the assumption that that is the beginning of the end, that all of humanity is about to die, you might as well put that vacation to Bali on hold. And that the development of tactical nuclear weapons, the smaller yield weapons, has
changed the thinking on that. So Gallagher the world's largest aviation insurance brokers started working on a new plan for a nuclear war, or at least nuclear exchange, after Vladimir Putin talked about using potential weapons nuclear weapons against Ukraine
a couple of years ago. And the thinking now is, you've got these smaller tactical nuclear weapons that could be used in individual theaters or individual battle spaces, that wouldn't otherwise affect large swaths of the Earth, and wouldn't necessarily mean that there is a global nuclear exchange that's about to take place.
Airlines find workarounds for whatever challenges they face, safe corridors, minimum heights so that ground air missiles can't reach them. Why would they be grounded? Volcanic ash clouds affect big areas, but the world keeps flying.
So here's what they have figured out. Again, this is the world's insurance broker, aviation insurance broker named Gallagher. They have put together a fifteen member group that would meet within about four hours of that nuclear detonation and evaluate the threat to airlines on a country by country basis.
Is this a little add on for your insurance plan if you're an airline, great question, I would like the nuclear war supplemental package. Thank you.
They say that the cost of any scheme in the proposed plan, it would provide each carrier with about a billion dollars per plane of war coverage for passengers and third parties.
And it would amount to less than the price of a cup of coffee, a cup of coffee per passenger.
Yeah, the premiums wouldn't be that much, they say, but it would that it would be easily passed on to ticket price I passed on in the ticket prices that you pay.
Sure would be great. These are so shady shady asses, aren't they.
If you go on and you buy your plane ticket and it's like, hey, it's seventy nine bucks for you to go from Burbank to Vegas. Plus there's a little bit for the you know, the Las Vegas Tourism Bureau. There's a little bit for the Bob Hope International Area.
For ninety nine for nuclear war
Bob for ninety nine for nuke coverage.
