Remember all those thousands of passengers that airlines banned for not wearing face masks
“Any further disregard for the policies that keep us all safe will result in placement on Delta’s permanent no-fly list,” he said.
“The timing of this is outrageous,” said Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants. “The federal mask mandate has been lifted, but the pandemic is not over.” The Justice Department said Wednesday that it would be appealing a ruling which lifted the travel face mask mandate, after the CDC determined masks continue to be necessary for the public good.
Delta has banned about 2,000 passengers; Alaska more than 1,700; and United about 1,000. American and Southwest have never disclosed numbers. Late Wednesday, the Justice Department announced that it will appeal the Florida judge's ruling. However, the Biden administration did not indicate whether it plans to seek an immediate stay of the ruling — which could allow the TSA to resume enforcing the mask rule.
United's Kirby and American's chief commercial officer, Vasu Raja, said they have seen no indication yet that the demise of the rule is affecting ticket sales one way or the other.
