The FAA has warned airlines to prepare for potential collisions due to space debris from rocket failures by companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin. Airlines are advised to train crews for such incidents and to plan alternative routes, carry extra fuel, and consider emergency landing airports.

Following a recent SpaceX Starship explosion, debris fell near three aircraft, highlighting safety concerns. The FAA will implement airspace restrictions to mitigate risks and inform affected aircraft of debris fall locations.
