Case Study – Airlines Navigating 5G

In January 2022, the chief executives of major U.S. passenger and cargo carriers warned of an impending “catastrophic” aviation crisis in less than 36 hours, when AT&T and Verizon were set to deploy new 5G service. The airlines warned the new C-Band 5G service set to begin could render a significant number of widebody aircraft unusable, “could potentially strand tens of thousands of Americans overseas”, and cause “chaos” for U.S. flights.

This case study will delve into this scenario and solicit input on how the scenario could have been prevented or at least mitigated.
