What flight attendants want you to know about traveling right now
CNNCNN — Your checklist for airplane travel this holiday season: High quality, comfortable mask; hand sanitizer; early airport arrival; an easy to remove jacket, shoes, laptop and toiletries for the security checkpoint. Yet according to flight attendants, pre-planning may not prepare you for the full reality of flying in 2021 – and it’s not just Covid-19. Sara Nelson: First, it’s very likely a lot of people are traveling for the first time since the pandemic started. So unless there’s an imminent threat of people getting hurt, we really advise passengers not to take action on their own because they may inadvertently make the situation worse. And as soon as people see that there are severe consequences, we expect that is going to help people understand that you don’t act out in an airport or on a plane.
