The planes diverting were downrange. Also, I doubt they had much information to go off, and were essentially flying blind about where the debris were unless they had a direct line to NORAD. Do you have a better explanation why they are doing donuts over the pacific at the time of reentry, then were diverted? https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/ABX3133 https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/N121BZ/history/20250... | |||||||||||||||||

I was on r/flightradar24 and someone was listening on ATC and heard that one of the flights declared emergency due to fuel. Other planes were also caught up in the chaos but SJU was at capacity apparently | |||||||||||||||||

I don't have. Maybe they were indeed diverted because people got scared? Still seems pointless given the distances involved. Most reports are coming from social media / people watching flightradar24, and news media is just picking those up. | |||||||||||||||||
