According to inkorr.com: During a flight over New York, a dangerous situation occurred when Spirit Airlines and Air Force One, carrying U.S. President Donald Trump, came too close to one another. The incident happened on September 16, when Airbus A321 flight Spirit 1300 from Fort Lauderdale to Boston crossed the path of the presidential Boeing 747 over Long Island. The air traffic controller noticed the threat and repeatedly tried to resolve the situation, demanding that Spirit pilots change their route.

Although the distance between the planes was within safety limits, a recording of the radio exchange between the controller and the crews became popular on social networks. The recording captures the controller's instructions and a sharp remark to the Spirit pilots about the need to put away the iPad.
