Don’t most drones bought ‘off the shelf’ operate in a narrow band of frequencies?...which I assume would not overlap with frequencies reserved for air travel?
Can they jam those frequencies?

Most use 2.4 GHz frequency hopping, the same frequencies that Wi-Fi and microwave ovens use. Because of Hedy Lamarr's frequency hopping technique, to jam you'd have to flood the entire band.
