If that's the logic then no airline can remove face cover policies until the US does since any flight could contain a USA based passenger who may be connecting onwards to the USA. I am not sure I see it myself, and if that reasoning is correct I think it an overly cautious approach.

I am also not clear why this wasn't squared off before BA announced the change. Does no one speak to each other at BA or do they all work in silos?
