I flew short haul on BA last week and the flight attendant pulled his mask down under his nose regularly and the passenger next to me was barely using a scarf.
I was using an mask with a vent.
Should the airlines supply them?
Can’t rely on 300 random people to be “aware” can we?
- newsbinator 6y agoI flew on LOT (Polish Airlines) recently and during the safety demo all flight attendants (I saw 3 or 4 down the aisle) removed their masks and kept them off for several minutes. Why? You can't demonstrate the oxygen mask dropping down while you're wearing a mask yourself?
- Simulacra 6y agoI make southwest give me a mask each flight. Why use mine when I can use theirs.
- giantg2 6y agoIf I have to fly, I'm using my P100 paint respirator. I never thought it would be useful in this way after painting my car.
- ohazi 6y agoDon't fly AA then, respirators have a vent.
- giantg2 6y agoIt's fine, you just need to put cloth over the vent to meet their requirements.
- mindslight 6y agoIf it's like my 3M mask, you should be able to take the face piece apart, pull off the check valve flaps, and seal the vent port. Cleaner job, no worries about the vent retaining moisture, and P100 output filtration. It does retain a bit more warmth, but after a few months of wearing it modded I've stopped noticing.
