Their plane, their arbitrary absurd rules. If you don't like it, you can leave.

Does it matter what kind of mask you "were"? What if you use a layer of gauze?

If you don’t want to wear a mask that’s cool, but you can also drive. Being an asshole to a flight attendant isn’t sticking it to the man

I was on a long haul flight a couple weeks ago the some of the flight attendants weren't even wearing masks "properly" lol.
US airlines are way more strict though. I would not suggest playing games on that front unless you don't care about getting to your destination. |

Pro tip: bring a bag of snacks. Eat slowly when you need air. Don’t flaunt it. Attendants aren’t constantly walking the plane.

If I'm running an airline and find the majority of my customers want the people around them wearing masks...maybe even choose not to fly with me if we don't make that a requirement...I will mandate masks on my airplanes.
Business decisions made to protect profits are not oppression. If you dislike the policy, fly a different airline. If enough people do THAT, the policy will be rescinded. Capitalism works. |

My bosses boss ended us flying until the airlines aren’t retarded again. Last business flight our group had a ended up with a ton of airline related problems.
My passport was supposed to get used like a $5 whole last year. That didn’t happen. |

I have flown at least 6-7 times or more since the start of Covid. Flying again this weekend. Yeah, their plane, their rules. Bring a water on board, as long as you are eating or drinking, you don't have to wear a mask. I sip on that bad boy the whole flight.

Just have your tray table down and a drink or food out on the tabletop. You can have your mask down the entire cruise at altitude this way.

If I wear it over my nose my glasses fog.
I can't see my book, or screen or tablet, or the instructions on the handwipe pack or the nutrition information on the food packaging without my glasses. That's an ADA issue. |

An airplane is probably a sensible place for people to wear masks. It is a very enclosed space with a lot of people from various locations in it. I have flown wearing a mask, and it was not an issue.

I fly often for work. More than once, I’ve seen people in full on body suits.
Once I saw a family doing it. Little suits for the kids and everything. If you’re that scared, at what point do you just drive? |

And don't plan on flying without having gotten the vaccine and have papers to prove it.

Just did 2 flights on American to get home.
Wore a very thin gaiter and not a word was said to me. I'm not interested in being barred from airlines so I didn't try to break the rules. I did bring a large drink and snack with me so I kept the gaiter down while I enjoyed my snack and drink slowly. |

That would be the common sense answer, but these karens and soy boys know that the full weight of .gov is behind them to force the rest of us to have our lives altered to cater to their "muh covid" scaredy-catness. |

You can bring mini bottles in your carry on, but if you consume them in flight, you'll speak to the cops too.

My employer won't pay for us to sit out mandatory quarantine in hotels out of state now, so none of us are going anywhere by air, and I'm happy about it.
I can imagine I could probably induce a coughing fit so hard that I bled out of the mask though. That would probably make them do something. |

It's a perfect example of when to say "ok" in a cooperative way, then keep doing what you want without drawing attention. Don't give them a reason to focus on you or you will be singled out and they will pay extra attention to what you are doing. |

So what happens if the plane loses pressurization and the O2 masks deploy?
Do you put it on over your 'rona mask? Do you ignore it, since the 'rona mask is so freaking magical it can provide oxygen just as effectively as it stops viruses that are 1000X smaller than the weave?

Let me give you a tip. You will run into cabin crews that are mask Nazis, (usually younger ones) and some that don't really care too much. I even had a very junior millennial FA tell me to pull my mask up when I was dead heading a few weeks back. Even though I was the captain of the flight before the DH. It's really getting out of control.

I'm pretty sure if you have a depressurization event, the concern of covid will suddenly be less important. |

One of Biden's new executive orders requires a mask if you take a flight or train ride that crosses state lines.
