What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBacklog is right, Kenji. Some of us have been stuck in one since the last embassy asked me to leave. Now, the world.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Wall Street Journal reports the Houthis are bombarding Saudi Arabia's air links, with missile attacks on airports, trying to cut the kingdom off from the rest of the world.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Journal says the strikes are spooking travelers and threatening another pillar of the kingdom's growth. Airports are the target, and that is the point.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOkay, so they're going after airports. Bro, I'm not saying it's the worst thing, but airports already ruin my day with a fourteen-dollar sandwich.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorKenji, this is about regional stability and global commerce. Travelers are watching the skies, and the people running things are watching their image.

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFine, I'll be serious. If I can't book a flight, I can't go anywhere. I'm basically already a Saudi airport, honestly.
