Coronavirus Crisis

Nonfiction • TV-PG • Directed by: Ice Airport Alaska • 44 minutes

Ted Stevens Airport is about to make history in a way no one could have anticipated…or wanted. They are awaiting the first flight of American evacuees arriving from the coronavirus-plagued city of Wuhan, China. The North Terminal has been locked. Somehow, they must screen 201 potentially infected passengers while keeping operations running normally. Add on a damaging three-day snowstorm and a daring, first-ever attempt to airlift a small plane by helicopter, and it makes for a blizzard of challenges for the men and woman of the "Ice Airport."
