more air travel doesn't mean more pleasant air travel. anyone who's flown knows it's been a tough winter. this past january was one of the worst in the past 2 decades for delays & cancellations - so says the transportation department.from the year before ontime arrivals dropped from 81% to 67.7%.the number of cancelled flights for the month rose from 1.5 percent to 6 and a half percent. which airport was the most frustrating for fliers? chicago's o'hare had the lowest ontime rate with just over half of arriving flights landing at their scheduled time. coming up...some of that turbulence from winter weather spilled over into fed ex earnings...that tops today's chart talk...high expectations, high stakes - does this weekend's new lionsgate movie win high praise from our film critic? you and i are about to find out. a movie studio that announces it's going to live by the franchise movie can also die by the franchise movie. our movies & money movie man is erik childress. lionsgate made a name and made money with the twilight and hunger games

should air travelers be concerned?ng mess is askor of "bulls and bears" seen here on saturdays. we never miss it. >> thank you. >> if there aren't enough pilots, what will it mean? >> i took a close look at the three studies this watch dog report came up with, and it's not so clear-cut. there is a problem with the regional airlines. we see the unemployment rate for pilots is 2.7%, very low. that would suggest there's a shortage, but pay has gone down by 10%, but the number of pilots has gone up 12%. i think where we're seeing the problem is in the regional airlines where they don't pay to which. a lot of copilots make into you have beenly minimum wage. so there may be some cutbacks in service to some smaller cities. >> what you're saying is they have the jobs, but they're not paying, so pilots may not be applying for those jobs. but they are also consolidating flights. it seems like the schedules aren't enough flights going if you also don't have pilots signing up, the air traveler could be frustrated by that process.

not just affecting air travel but road conditions. in colorado, more than a hundred cars were caught in a series of crashes because of slick conditions. >> all of the sudden, things went out of control. >> reporter: major airlines eased rebooking rules for passengers who fly past the storm. this is a day you want to call in advance, especially any connections to see if the airline can rebook you through or around that storm's path. reporting live at sfo, cate cauguiran, kpix 5. >>> developing news from the east bay, this morning, investigators try to piece together what happened moments before a teenager was killed by a freight train. the girl was hit by a train near old orchard and howl roads in martinez yesterday afternoon. martinez police found her body near the railroad tracks. the freight train conductor said two people got off the tracks as the train approached, but for unknown reasons, the girls stepped back on the tracks. some people at the scene suggested she might have gone back on the tracks to retrieve a cell phone. or tha

as a result, air travelers boarded 1 billion times last year, with no check against interpol's list of stolen documents. an example officials say, samantha lewthwaite known as the white widow of a london suicide bomber and wanted for possessing explosives traveled abroad with fraudulent documents. experts say it's a matter of cost, less concern about terror, and sometimes even reluctance to interfere with a market to interfere with phony documents. >> frankly, there are some countries that don't want this because it could disturb an element of their underground economy. >> reporter: checking the database stops travelers with phony documents from entering the u.s. several hundred times a year, though they won't give specifics. interpol says so many countries are lax, that as many as 40% of passengers on international flights could be using documents that are lost or stolen. pete williams, nbc news, washington. >>> out west tonight, we're just seeing the start of some serious problems following the winter weather we've had, especially in the northern portion of the nation. there's seriou

as the years go on air travel is becoming safer and safer. he cost calculus just doesn't make sense i think both in the view of the faa and the air lines. a study conducted about ten years ago said that for planes to upgrade to that kind of technology would cost each airplane about $300 million per year. so it's really unlikely in an era where air travel is as safe as it is that they will make those investments. the thing to remember is that in the sort of grizzly calculus that we have to do when you look at the cost benefit ratio of things like that kind of investment, is the chances of passengers surviving a crash. and in this case, most crashes take place during takeoff and landing. this was in the middle of the flight. and when you are looking at a fall from 35,000 feet to the ocean. you are not looking at the kind of conditions where the pilot touched down on the hudson and everybody got off okay. when you hit the water the way this plane likely did, it is going to be like hitting concrete. so even a day's jump the way you would get out o

it's hard to believe after a list like that, taken in context, air travel is safe. compared to the other ways that we travel, considering the huge number of commercial flights all over the world that have taken off and landed safely just since i started this segment, air travel broadly speaking is safe. but when it's not there's a lot of different ways that it can go wrong. and we have an empirical set of data, really well documented all -- from all over the world about why planes come down when they do come down. if malaysia airways flight 370 did come down, then finding its wreckage will be the first and necessary step in figuring out what was the cause of that disaster. but when planes do come down, there are as many ways to find them as there are ways for the plane's failure to have occurred in the first place, there's no mystery as to where the plane is, and that's true both in heroic and happy circumstances like with that u.s. air flight on the hudson, it's also true sometimes in unbelievably tragic circumstances like in lockerbie, when the wing of pan am flig

>> well, eric, air travel is the safest form of travel there is.t's safer than liking, it's safer than automobiles, it's safer than trains. i don't think we should require airlines to put this type of technology on it. government's role is not to tinker with regulation. they should be deregulating aviation and focus on addressing our enemies. government, keeping us safe, protecting individual rights, destroying our enemies, not dictating how speak should use the skies. that's for the private market. >> i'm saying 60 cents per occupied seat. i'm simplifying it. it comes down to that. as wayne points out, as time goes, those costs will drop as well. it may be worth it to give the globe, everyone peace of mind, right? >> the amount of bandwidth that would take in order to transmit that data is just incredible. it's not just the data and bandwidth and cost. there's a concern about that data being intercepted by perhaps a terrorist. and like jonathan said, this is the safest mode of transportation. and the government shouldn't be trying to mandate this.

statistically, commercial air travel in this country is about the safest mode of transportation we have. per passenger mile, it's safer than a car, bus, train, or walking. it's not perfect, but over the years, it's about as close as humans can get. and it's one instance in which the government can partially responsible for getting it right. the safety standards that we require are extraordinary. not only in the operations of the aircraft but in the way they're built, tested, and certified to fly. a lot of the credit for that goes to the national transportation safety board, which is one of the most effective government agencies we've got in carrying out its mission, and which learns from every air mishap, then incorporates those lessons in law and policy. a lot of credit goes to the airlines themselves. greatly underappreciated for their dogged determination to put safety first in their operations. and understandably so. an airline disaster resulting in a crash and a loss of lives costs millions in litigation, reparations, and it costs the carrier unbelievable sums due to bad publicity
