Delta CEO blasts Biden proposal to require Covid tests for domestic travelers
The proposal to require domestic airline passengers to prove they have tested negative for Covid-19 is a "horrible idea," according to Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian. Bastian told CNN's Poppy Harlow Tuesday that the proposal being discussed by the Biden Administration would drain testing resources away from people who need it more. He said the number of confirmed Covid cases transmitted during air travel since the start of the pandemic has been "absolutely minimal." (www.cnn.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
people have the choice to fly. they fill the stores and bars. i fly Delta all the time. its very safe.
Thing is everyone wants a bail out but no one wants to follow rules. The airlines got lots of bailout money enough to keep them in business while a small bakery in Hawaii closed doors, not big enough to to save. Remember the big bank and auto bailout, only Detroit paid back the tax payer, not one bank or Wall Street folks paid you back.
I say you want my bailout money then follow the rules and help get out of this pandemic. The last one lasted 2 years.
So maybe I will not fly Delta ever again, any use those who want to keep me safe

In the end - how would a rapid test really inconvenience anyone. Flying is not a “Right” but a privilege in the end.
If the airlines allow this illegitimate dictator/president to force an experimental "vaccine" on people, I for one will never fly again; and will ultimately result in state-run airlines with no profits.
Good point but if the infected person only wears a mask when on an airplane then the discards it at their destination, the infected person can spread the infection and the airline helped. The issue is controlling spread. If you believe that Covid-19 is real and it actually kills people then it is proper for the FAA and the airline industry to protect the public and determine if additional boarding steps should be mandated. This is an academic question today, without a real solution, but if one were to be developed in the future that was quick, then it’s probably the right thing to do. It’s a matter of degree. Airlines can haul hundreds of people, unlike traveling by car, so by definition, airlines could transport hundreds of a symptomatic individuals even if they are wearing masks. That’s not controlling spread.
Wait. Mask s work right? Airlines require EVERYONE wear a mask. Right?? Then why would I be worried about getting the C19 if masking works???? Why would I need to be tested???
