Alot of people will never feel safe even though its a safes form of transportation
I’ve been flying for business and pleasure for 40 years. I was one of the first to board a plane after 9/11. And I will again be one of the first to board a plane when this is over. I think the “game changer” in all of this is not going to be the masks, the social dis tancing, etc. It’s going to be the anti-body blood testing for all. If my blood shows anti-bodies, then I had it whether I knew it or not, and my body produced anti-bodies and I’m good to go. I suspect what’s going to happen is mass anti-body blood testing. And the Government will keep track of those test results. Those who have anti-bodies will probably be given some type of ID card. And those people will be “good to go”. The reality is that probably exponentially more people have had it and recovered than we have any idea, until mass testing is done. A plane load of passengers who have the anti-bodies can sit side-by-side, no masks, and move about the cabin. It won’t matter. But, for those without the anti-bodies, then they’re going to have to have a vaccine to protect them.
Until when we are be able to travel again!!!! Can we still traveling with out the quar antine!!!! I need to go by next week!! Not for vacation is going to the be the funeral of my fiancé grandma!!!
People don’t realize the Airplane can be cleaned and sanitized, the women Hair can be a problem the Vi rus can nest in the hair, many women don’t wash their hair every night many man does. so there is only so much a airline can do to keep people safe.
Mahalo. Why can’t we shut down air travel like Australia new sealed and all other islands to protect us all
Hi Beth.
As I’m sure you know, aviation including airports are entirely under federal control.
Aloha.
Aloha,
I have reservations to fly to Maui on July 6, 2020. Will things be back to normal or should I look into moving my travel plans for later in the year? Mahalo for any information you can supply, Sheldon W.
Hi Sheldon.
We post everything that we learn. The best suggestion is to check back in about a month, and see how things are looking then.
Aloha.
I think taking temperatures, while possibly a good idea, is somewhat arbitrary. Not everyone is “normal” at 98.6. There is evidence that normal can be quite a bit lower. Not sure how they decide where the cutoff is for keeping passengers off of flights.
I also think that from now on, I will seriously consider buying travel insurance for the cost of my trip that covers illness, if there is a chance I could be kept from taking a flight by having a temperature. There is certainly a lot to consider here.
found our expensive travel insurance for the year or travels does not cover pan demic situations.
Will they do away with the middle seat on the 3/3 configured aircraft?
It seems like we ought to consider taking temps before boarding. Masks make sense, mandatory at least initially. Do you have any thoughts about limiting the carry on to facilitate the log jam in the boarding? Although our trip is in January, you read our minds about the 4000 mile trip from Missouri being anxiety raising. We appreciate your article(s) and insights.
Hi Thomas.
Thanks for your thoughts. Yes, carry-on’s are definitely a source of log jam as you said.
We appreciate all of your comments over the past five years!
Aloha. R/J
I don’t get the temperature screenings. The whole point is that it’s the time when your a symptomatic (without symptoms) is when most of the transmissions occur – that was the whole issue of travelers coming back from lunar New Years celebrations after catching the vi rus but not showing symptoms (like a temperature) for 14 days
