The FAA and NTSB have data that shows no increase in trend of injuries due to turbulence over the past 15 years, despite an increase in air travel over the same period.

Unlike the BBC, I can directly cite my sources for you so you can make up your own mind, rather than rely on a spoon-fed editorialised narrative:
