3 US airlines will let some passengers banned for mask violations back on their flights

Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and American Airlines said they would now allow some passengers who were banned from their planes because of mask violations to return to their flight rosters -- determined on a case-by-case basis.

American Airlines plans to follow suit, according to Nate Gatten, American's chief government affairs officer.

American will also allow most passengers barred from flying for mask noncompliance "to resume travel at some point in time," Gatten said in an earnings call on Thursday.

Interesting. First they call for a ban on all unruly people, but when given the chance welcome them back? Confusing.

IMO it depends what they did. If they just wouldn't wear a mask, then they should probably be allowed back at some point in the not too distant future, now that masks aren't required. If they were disruptive, abusive, or physically violent with staff, then I have much less sympathy.

Screw em. Don’t let them back. Maybe if more had said NO things would have been different.

I’m glad I never played the mask game. It doesn’t matter if one doesn’t want to wear one but did anyway. Ok, I’ll do what the man says so I can still fly down to the Keys.

I stood my ground and sacrificed recreation and seeing our new grandson. My dignity is more valuable than 7 days on the beach.

I agree with you about both of those things, Gatsby.

Maybe not. Depends on how you wear that Speedo.

They always had the power to ban people who didn’t wear masks. What they wanted was for the government to ban their competitors from doing business with the people they banned.

Hot take. That makes a certain amount of sense, considering how quickly they ditched masks and brought banned passengers back.

Maybe not. Depends on how you wear that Speedo.

I don’t get it. Is that some kind of gay joke?

I don’t know any gay jokes. Typically no one has dignity in a Speedo.

Exactly. It's a case-by-case thing that will be the determination.

I work in the industry. Dunno how unruly they were in each case but most bans are temporary. The more aggressive their behavior the longer the ban (up to permanent) but also depends on the airline.

I never once saw this proposed. Link?

‘That makes it illegal for all airlines to do business with them, including the airline that put them there. That’s not the same as banning competitors from serving them.

I'm sorry you got caught in a lie. Just a tip, but it's better to plead forgetfulness than try to rationalize. Anyone would believe that you simply forgot that thread after seven months.

Your wording was ambiguous, no need to be so mad about it

 

[NuffSaid]

I would have not allowed it.

These scumbags deserved their banning. They clearly don’t give a shit about others. Typical MAGAts, selfish. Me, me, me

Anything for money, for sure. I'm sure airlines are afraid to ban most people because they fear that person will just fly on another carrier. Literally putting profits ahead of the lives of passengers and crew.

It's probably more just the idea that 'there are no bad people, just people having a bad day'. There are limits to it of course, but that's why they don't ban people for life just for being mildly obnoxious.

It isn't dignity, it's called sheer stubbornness just to prove a point.

Airlines don't care. As long as massive corporate profits can be made and they can continue to destroy the planet without interference, they are happy.
