United, American, and Delta have all announced similar policies.
Kudos to United Airlines!!! All airlines should follow in their footsteps!!! This is one of the many perks of Southwest airlines.
"In its latest move to offer more flexibility to fliers during COVID-19, United Airlines is putting an end to ticket change fees for good. The airline announced Sunday that going forward, it will no longer be charging change fees for all standard economy and premium cabin tickets for travel within the U.S., effective immediately."

The new policy applies to all domestic flights.
We've been warned so the safest thing to do IMO if/when you travel is to be prepared with your own cleaning wipes/supplies!
"Airlines is reducing its COVID-focused cleaning protocol.
Effective this month, the airline is now only disinfecting high-touch areas like lavatories and tray tables between flights. Armrests and seat belts will not be disinfected between flights."

"You cannot board a Delta plane unless you have a mask on,'' he said. "If you board the plane and you insist on not wearing your mask, we will insist that you don't fly Delta into the future. We already have over 100 people we've put on that list."
https://www.today.com/today/amp/tdna187465
Delta CEO Ed Bastian says customers who board flights and then refuse to wear their mask will be banned from future flights on the airline.
We all ❤ to travel so EVERYBODY needs to READ this article. I love all of you so please wear your mask. 🥰🤗❤!!!
https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/19/health/face-masks-us-guidance/index.html
First, health officials said we shouldn't wear face masks. Then, they said we should. Now, many are saying we must wear masks if we want to protect the economy, reopen more schools and save tens of thousands of lives.

From scanning your own boarding pass to practicing physical distancing, here are 7 new policies to follow the next time you fly.
I found that, above all, social distancing is a concept that varies depending on which airline you choose to fly on during the pandemic.
This saddens me to my core 😪. I think my reaction may have been similar. Other guests were not questioned plus I had a viable hotel key! Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic I traveled several times per year professionally and leisurely. Why can't "we" as a world get this right?!!!

The Hilton-owned hotel brand issued an apology Monday morning, insisting the company "has zero tolerance for racism or discrimination."
Most major airlines are currently operating flights at a capped maximum of passengers, to help ensure that passengers aren’t crowded inside like sardines at a time when we’re all supposed to be doing our best to socially distance from each other. Delta, for example, is operating thus for the time being: By capping first-class cabins at 50% capacity and only selling a maximum of 60% of its main cabin seats.
Starting Wednesday, however, American Airlines is resuming the sale of the entirety of its planes’ seats, so that you could conceivably board a full flight soon if you choose to fly with the airline. No surprise, CDC director Robert Redfield expressed “substantial disappointment” with American Airlines for this change in policy. He made the comments during a Senate Health Committee hearing Tuesday, responding to a question from Sen. Bernie Sanders by lamenting: “I can tell you that when they announced that the other day, obviously there was substantial disappointment with American Airlines. A number of the airlines had decided to keep the middle seat (open).”

You must think differently than before when traveling in the new COVID-19 world.
Prior to each flight, Alaska, American, United, Delta, Southwest, Hawaiian and JetBlue Airways will communicate to passengers their policy on individual face coverings, which must cover a passenger's nose and mouth.
Once on board, crew members will reiterate the policy. If passengers do not cooperate, the association said in a press release, the airlines will take actions that could include putting people on a no-fly list.

United announced that starting June 18, any passenger that does not follow the airline's mask policy will be placed on a no-fly list, for a varying amount of time.

Once airports and borders open and people are able to flight again, how much are you ready to adjust to a very "new normal?"
Travelers will now be boarding the airplanes in groups of 10, with people only lining up on one side of the Southwest’s boarding poles. The airline is also asking passengers to download their mobile boarding pass prior to leaving home, recommends eating before traveling since drinks and snacks will no longer be served onboard, and will begin requiring passengers to wear face masks while traveling.

Air travel is rapidly changing during coronavirus pandemic, as more safety measures are introduced at both airports and onboard the planes themselves.
Say goodbye to caring about your passengers ... smh, its all about the $$$!
"American Airlines this week raised its checked bag fees for basic economy passengers flying across the Atlantic Ocean. Those passengers will now pay $75 each way for a checked bag, up from $60."

Most of the country is sheltering in place and air traffic has slowed dramatically but there are still people who must fly.
The Department of Transportation issued a stark message to airlines that serve the U.S. Friday, reminding carriers that they must provide cash refunds to travelers whose flights are canceled by the airline.
Even the title of the missive was weighty. In its “enforcement notice,” the DOT said “carriers have a longstanding obligation to provide a prompt refund to a ticketed passenger when the carrier cancels the passenger’s flight or makes a significant change in the flight schedule and the passenger chooses not to accept the alternative offered by the carrier.”

Some airlines are waiving change fees amid coronavirus crisis. ❤

United joined American, Delta and other carriers allowing travelers buying new tickets to change them without paying a hefty fee.
The airlines' move follows similar actions by United last week as airlines grapple with a sharp drop off in travel demand.
***🌍IMPORTANT🌏:
Some two-thirds of US state driver's licenses are not compliant with a post-9/11 security law set to go into affect on October 1. Those who are not compliant will not be able to fly if they don't have other forms of "REAL ID-compliant" identification.
Check if your state driver's license or identification card is REAL ID compliant simply by looking for a star in the upper right hand corner. Some state departments of motor vehicles will confirm REAL ID status online.

On October 1, 2020, travelers will need a "REAL ID-compliant" driver's license, US passport, US military ID or other accepted identification to fly within the United States.
