Why are experts saying there's no reason to be concerned about flying despite recent aviation incidents?

Despite a series of recent commercial airline accidents, January 2023 actually recorded one of the lowest flight incidents across the board historically. Aviation experts confirm that flying remains statistically very safe, particularly on commercial airlines. Many aircraft accidents involve smaller private planes that don't receive media coverage. While it's understandable to feel nervous given recent incidents, commercial air travel continues to be a very safe mode of transportation. The heightened awareness comes from increased media coverage of commercial incidents, but the overall safety record of commercial aviation remains strong.
