Will this AA move — which largely seems to be copying UA — do anything about passengers who avoid/minimize wearing a mask over their mouth and nose by milking the presence of a cup/bottle or other food/beverage packaging on their tray or otherwise in their hand or hand’s reach?
In other words, is there any plan to deal with passengers who exploit food/beverage container/packaging in-hand (or in hand’s reach on the tray/armrest/seatback) to avoid/minimize appropriately using a mask in-flight even while no longer consuming any food/beverage from the package/container?
Some mask-haters aren’t beyond willfully doing things that most decent people wouldn’t do, when it comes to mask rules and recommendations put in place in response to the risk from this coronavirus pandemic. It will be interesting to see how inconsistently AA deals with this.
