Dallas was first served by Turkish Airlines during the pandemic. They found the flight to be so successful that they expanded it. Additionally, starting in June, they will run ten flights every week.
After announcing that it would never allow someone to invade its territory in such a way, American Airlines currently prioritizes short-haul domestic routes and has a shortage of widebodies. They have no feet.
Doug Parker, a former CEO, clarified the previous mindset,
When someone launches a flight from Dallas to any destination, American will either already be there or will arrive soon. Because we won’t give clients any other choice than to enter and exit the country as Americans.
Given that the flight to Istanbul appears to be drawing an unwelcome element, is it perhaps best that they avoid going there instead? When a Turkish traveler stole a wallet from the Coach store in the D terminal, at least one of them ended up in jail in Dallas.
He did in fact purchase something, but he stole another item when the clerk was away.
Additionally, even though he was only purchasing one item, he requested two cartons.
Everything is captured on video. The wallet was nowhere to be found. When they noticed it had been missing, clerks alerted the police.
The passenger was located at the Turkish Airlines gate by officers. He said he was given the wallet (‘purchase one thing, get the wallet free’) and that because he is from a “good family,” he would never steal anything.
Which man—the well-mannered man or the man captured on camera snatching the wallet, hiding it in his bag, and having the store employees report it stolen—will you believe?
The clerk had to decide whether to file charges or allow the man to pay for the pocketbook. Put him in jail.
Shoplifting up to $950 was downgraded from a felony to a misdemeanor in San Francisco. However, Prop 47 also meant that police could no longer make shoplifting arrests; instead, they could typically only issue citations. For stealing $950, you are fined $1,000. The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act essentially made shoplifting in San Francisco legal, which explains why there was so much of it there. Naturally, the Dallas-Fort Worth airport is located in Texas, and the traveler was taken into custody there.
