FYI...
On April 18, a federal judge in Florida ruled against the Biden Administrations’ mandatory mask mandate for travelers on public transportation, including airplanes. As a result, Alaska Airlines (AS), American Airlines (AA), Delta Air Lines (DL), JetBlue Airlines (B6), Southwest Airlines (WN), and United Airlines (UA) have now made masks optional for travelers on their aircraft.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced it will also no longer enforce its Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and in transportation hubs.
Travelers should exercise patience when traveling over the coming days, as enforcement of this change in policy may be inconsistent in the short term.
