Are you saying they are underestimating the number? Or are you saying that the number isn’t high enough to warrant action? Your comment isn’t clear.

- d1sxeyes 2y agoI believe the first, they're saying that it's about as likely to report being sexually assaulted on a plane as to die in a plane crash, which seems extraordinarily unlikely to be true, and if it IS true, it implies that planes are already safe places, safer than most other environments you'll be in.
- arp242 2y agoNo, I just looked up how this number relates. Nothing more, nothing less. No assumptions or points to be made about anything. To what degree these numbers are reliably is not something I can reasonably judge.
- Someone 2y agoOr they’re so unsafe that people do not dare report issues. Or people being harassed don’t think it will help to report issues. Or people being harassed think it might help, but statistically not so much that it makes reporting issues worth the added travel delay. (This list likely isn’t complete)
- d1sxeyes 2y agoSorry, yes, my meaning was that it seems as though the number OP used to arrive at the conclusion is incorrect, either because OP made an error, or because of some reason that leads folks to under-report (as you suggest above), or because the data is wrong for some other reason.
