Operation Yellow Ribbon

Gander International Airport in Newfoundland, Canada played host to 38 airliners, totalling 6,122 passengers and 473 crew, as part of Operation Yellow Ribbon.
Lufthansa christened an Airbus A340, registered D-AIFC, Gander – Halifax to honour the two cities that received its stranded flights during Operation Yellow Ribbon.[17]

Operation Yellow Ribbon was commenced by Canada to handle the diversion of civilian airline flights in response to the September 11 attacks in 2001. Canada's goal was to ensure that potentially destructive air traffic be removed from United States airspace as quickly as possible, and away from potential U.S. targets, and instead place these aircraft on the ground in Canada, at military and civilian airports in the Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, and British Columbia (and also several in New Brunswick, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec) where their destructive potential could be better contained and neutralized. As none of the aircraft proved to be a threat, Canada and Canadians subsequently undertook to play host to the many people aboard the aircraft during the ensuing delay in reaching their destinations.
