Latest crash reports we recorded

Global Incident Tracker's own records begin in August 2026.

What this page shows, and what it misses

Two separate records, never added together. Wikidata: every item classed as an aviation accident (or a kind of one, such as a helicopter crash, mid-air collision or runway excursion) with a date in 2024, with the death toll, country, operator and aircraft as entered there. It favours larger, widely reported accidents, and new entries appear days or weeks after a crash.

Neither is an official world total, and the two counts differ because they count different things. For US civil aviation alone, the NTSB's CAROL accident database lists every accident it investigates, most of them small private aircraft.

Aviation accident data: Wikidata (CC0 public domain), from its structured fields only. Crash reports: Global Incident Tracker.

QuestionsPlane crashes in 2024

How many plane crashes have there been in 2024?
Wikidata lists 29 aviation accidents in 2024, with 337 deaths recorded against them. These are the counts in Wikidata, not an official world total. The deadliest listed: Jeju Air Flight 2216 (29 Dec 2024, 179 dead).
Which was the deadliest plane crash of 2024?
Among the aviation accidents listed in Wikidata for 2024, the deadliest is Jeju Air Flight 2216 on 29 Dec 2024 in South Korea, with 179 deaths recorded.
Why do different sites give different numbers of plane crashes?
Because they count different things. Some count only airliner accidents, some every accident of a small private plane, some only those with deaths. Wikidata lists accidents that someone has added as a structured item, which favours larger and widely reported crashes. Global Incident Tracker counts crash reports it picked up from news and official feeds. For the United States alone, the NTSB investigates over a thousand civil aviation accidents a year, most of them small private aircraft.
