What is the probability that a plane will crash/be hijacked?

Hello. Tomorrow I'm flying with EgyptAir to Hurghada. A few months ago, the plane was lost and crashed. Now I'm afraid the same thing will happen to me tomorrow. What are the chances of something like this happening again? And what are the chances of the plane being hijacked?

Flying is the safest method to travel. You may have heard the saying that the likelihood of being hit on the road by a falling flowerpot is higher than to crash with an airplane.

I’m flying about. 2 times a month and never as relaxed as flying. I often sleep before we take off. Just stay relaxed and enjoy your holiday.

The number of accidents is often heard by this, and this is, in comparison to the successful flights, very small, i.e. good flight 🙂

Statistically, this happens very rarely. The aircraft is still the safest means of transport

The probabilities for a crash and/or a kidnapping are respectively <1 and even if they were bigger, what would you use:

a) to have asked (and then again a day before departure) and

b) Would you like to point out to our answers that something is happening? I think so.

Your question therefore escapes a certain logic.

Very low at 100km, that’s different in the car

The likelihood to crash with an aircraft is less than a car accident, or to be overrun by the train.

Very low.

Especially in comparison with all the bus gaps, car accidents and train gaps (which happens much more often than a plane crashes). Flying is the safest way to travel.

The most dangerous of such a trip is the car ride to/from the airport!

Nice vacation!

As high as winning the eurojackpot or being hit by lightning… twice.

The probability of dying in a household or car accident is higher. I don’t know if that’s a comfort.

I personally wouldn’t fly to Egypt anymore. The counter seems rather unstable, what you hear. Also well protected tourist areas are no longer so safe.

Does it answer your question if you consider the whole crash?

It’s probably that you win twice in the lottery tomorrow.
