A4A urges lifting of pandemic-era transportation policies

Appearing on both ABC World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News, A4A President and CEO Nick Calio urged the CDC to allow the federal mask mandate to expire, citing that the requirement has outlived its usefulness. “The reality is the science and the data says you’re safer on an airplane than you are anywhere else,” Calio said, citing research that demonstrates air filtration systems on airplanes are highly protective.
