If someone can't be around any peanut dust on an airplane then I wonder how they manage to go to any restaurant or any type of event since there will be peanuts in the venue. I also heard a similar announcement a long time ago on a southwest flight.
Wasn't a big deal for me since I got upgraded but not sure what someone would have done in coach if they brought a peanut butter sandwich for their kids for lunch and sometimes when I am on a long flight I don't think I will get upgraded on, I will bring a couple packs of cheese crackers with peanut butter in them to eat
