CANADAHALIFAX news Halifax’s airport to commemorate 20th anniversary of September 11 by admin 10 سبتمبر، 2021 written by admin 10 سبتمبر، 2021 26 ‘Many people pulled together and showed the Halifax hospitality that we’re so well known for,’ said airport spokesperson Tiffany Chase HALIFAXtoday\ Meghan Groff Halifax Stanfield International Airport will be hosting a ceremony Saturday to commemorate the 20th anniversary of September 11th. On that date in 2001, four airplanes were hijacked in the United States. Two crashed into New York City’s World Trade Center, leading to the collapse of the two giant towers. A third struck the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and the fourth crashed into a Pennsylvania field after passengers and crew tried to regain control on the aircraft. North American airspace was quickly shut down to all but emergency traffic, and many flights that were already in the air were forced to land. Dozens of those planes ended up being diverted to our city. “Halifax welcomed 40 aircraft and hundreds of passengers and crew members here while they waited to see when they could continue on with their journeys,” airport spokesperson Tiffany Chase explained. She said a number of organizations had to come together to quickly coordinate the influx of planes and people. “They were stationed on an unused runway,” she said. “We had one of the runways where those aircraft were positioned, waiting until air travel could resume.” “Many people pulled together and showed the Halifax hospitality that we’re so well known for, in welcoming and housing many of those people,” Chase added. The commemoration ceremony starts at 1 p.m. Saturday and it will be live-streamed. “We’ve put together a video collecting some perspectives from various people who were involved in managing the arrival of all of those stranded passengers and crew members at the time,” Chase said. “It’s a significant anniversary to take note of and it’s an event that Haligonians won’t soon forget,” she added. 12 comments 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Whale carcass washes up on Crystal Crescent Beach next post Pedestrians urged to ‘take back’ Agricola Street on September 12 You may also like RMCP search for missing Lower Sackville woman 26 أبريل، 2025 Canadians at pope’s funeral say ceremony reflected his... 26 أبريل، 2025 2alarm blaze decimates home in Middle Sackville 26 أبريل، 2025 Israeli airstrike kills 10 people, half of them... 26 أبريل، 2025 كارني يندّد بالحصار الغذائي الإسرائيلي على قطاع غزة 26 أبريل، 2025 القضاء يلغي قراراً كيبيكياً بزيادة الرسوم الدراسية لغير... 26 أبريل، 2025 الزعماء في حركة مستمرة مع اقتراب الحملة الانتخابية... 26 أبريل، 2025 Teen arrested, weapons seized after threats against Halifax... 25 أبريل، 2025 Liberals maintain ‘commanding’ lead in Atlantic Canada polls 25 أبريل، 2025 Second-degree murder charge laid in latest intimate partner... 25 أبريل، 2025 12 comments Lo 11 سبتمبر، 2021 - 2:22 ص They welcomed us on Sept 11.
