Airports and airlines are rolling out temperature checks for crew and, increasingly, passengers, as well as thermal scans to spot people with elevated body
temperatures. Face masks are now de rigueur for travelers across the U.S. Passengers on Europe’s biggest budget carrier must raise their hands to use the toilet.
How about more legroom?

Enough with your clickbait articles. This isn’t how airlines are gonna look from here on out - only until the threat of the virus subsides.
How do I get on a ship instead? I’m in no rush to get places...
I’m looking for investors to invest in Iceland
Will the flight attendants still be rude and give us stink-face if we ask for a second coke
Why is raising your hand such a terrible thing. Obviously you can’t crowd up next to the door like you used to do.
Simply put, it's not worth it to fly anymore. If domestic travel is the goal, drive or charter a bus or try the train. As last resort, don't go.
Awesome
Rule Number One: flying should be considered a necessity and not done if at all possible. Drive your car.
It’s garbage. On one now
Unbelievable idiocy
DeathWish
why was this not introduced before now?
One thing one can see across airports around the world that ARE open is that nothing in them opens. So travelers should be informed: no bars, restaurants, shops, etc. Also, airlines must adapt to currrent times and make flying safe if they want people to fly again.
Be sure you read these before you go to the airport
GOVERNMENTS TREATS PEOPLE AS BABIES. PEOPLE ARENT STUPID. THEY KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.
No more Mile High Club I guess... 🙃
Will the airlines stop crammin people into flying sardine cans like steerage?
Won't be flying under these rules anytime soon.
You did an op Ed on the Governor of MN. He is using his own model that he isn’t sharing.... look into who created the model!!! GovTimWalz should resign he has ruined the lives of hundreds of thousands of people based on a dubious model that no other state in the USA is using.
Lockdowns have consequences
And you thought traveling by air was tough after 9/11.
Okay. Game Over. We lose.
the end of flying, what a mess and all for a new form of communism. putin and xi will triumph
Pandemic porn is useless. 🙄
never, ever say 'New Normal because it is NOT normal, call it for what it is , a 'NEW REALITY'' !!!
Airlines in summary....We at least want the revenue & 60% cap isn’t enough to make money but charging $39 for an an empty middle seat was a hopeful solution that got them too much bad press. ✈️ Just go back to flying like it’s 1995.
then, put them on no-fly-list until we see the end Covid19 pandemic.
timetravel timemachine I can't deal.
Flying already sucked before the virus. This isn't going to improve the experience unless they remove half of the seats and provide double the booze.
Airlines are nothing without passengers...
Meal service? What’s that?
Almost as much fun as it was before.
When the Logical facts are to apparent to ignore. Cobid-19 Co-Morbidity 19 is a Plandemic Scamdemic Spamdemic ...You'd have to be Blind not to see... Peace Ya'll
Happy to stay right where I am then. We’ll drive for vacation. I’ve ‘ad ‘nuff goofy rules and being treated like a mindless animal with less dignity and rights.
I never understood why people wanted to pile into planes first... for me it was how long I can stay off that sweaty box
I have always thought of boarding the airplane first as a negative. More time to be stuck in a dirty stinky cabin. The best scenario I can think of when flying is to be the last one on the plane right before it takes off.
First in, last out
PolitixGal I've always wondered why they filled planes in reverse order so that EVERY new passenger had to squeeze past people who were trying to stow luggage and get seated. It's ridiculous! And first class sitting there smugly watching the peons board.
As Nelson would say:
we finally got that right on account of this?
Airport should be provided cleaning room for virus killed as same as that for food factory. All passengers go thru and get in plane
Which is how it should have always been.
That’s how it should have always been. It will load so much faster. Funny it took a pandemic for the airlines to figure this out.
Cool mostly only people with private planes with fly now.... limousine libs get their wish. The planet is saved.
Which only makes sense, rather than waiting for everyone to get out of aisle. What is diff between sitting in terminal or sitting in uncomfy seat for 10 additional minutes. As a society, we are an embarrassment
Priority boarding was stupid. In a nosedive, those upfront die first anyways.
What difference does it make? The plane leaves when the after the last person is seated.
How about providing seats more separated from each other with protective shields to ensure passenger's safety. How about total disinfection after each flight. How about bigger bathrooms so you don't have to touch everything. That would be more sensible.
Finally leveling the playing field.
Never made sense to me that the front filled first.
rules for bathrooms? I smell oxford properties. Do not listen to pedophiles who tell you what to do
RIP all the people who spent so long to get Diamond status
No thanks, me and my family won't be flying until we can fly without masks and all this hassle.
And what about the physical distancing needed to keep people safe? What are you doing about that? Looking at you, americanair Delta SouthwestAir united AlaskaAir JetBlue SpiritAirlines FlyFrontier SkyWestAirlines Are you taking ownership of covid-19 cases caused?
Guess what I am not doing anytime soon...
The same airline who at first said they were going to be blocking off the middle seats and then walked back on that when we saw pictures of crowded planes? Yeah I’ll drive.
In other words, the airlines are killing their own business.
Business and regular folks are finding ways not to fly. I hate flying anyway and this is just one more reason to hate it even more. Welcome to industry contraction coming to an airline near you.
Vigilante justice would occur so fast on my flight..I'm not turning around or being diverted
I flew on SpiritAirlines yesterday. Literally nothing was different besides masks. Flight was either full or very close to full, even despite them advertising that they aren’t selling middle seats. Plot twist: they are.
Yes, apparently airline travel can be made even worse. No thanks.. drive or save the air abuse for big vacation only.
Yah they can try but hell no on high hacking me NO 👎
I am glad that I like to drive. LOL.
What’s funny is pilots can’t wear masks when they’re flying the plane. Not allowed/wouldn’t work with headgear. Do we have evidence that pre-lockdown c19 was spread via airplane passengers on a plane?
This is a nightmare waiting to happen. Let there be an indignant Karen or an irate Bill and flying becomes HELL.
Flying already felt like I was abuse... more please?
Doesn't more layovers just expose more people to more people
Great, just great... 🙄
Recirculated air is worrisome unless you have maximum air exchange but even then it’s still a big mystery
That will be costly
The only real pandemic restriction I agree with. I got off a biz trip to Boston few yrs back & was sick for 3 full days. Like someone poisoned me. Dozens of people enclosed isnt good.
Why will a layover help. The truth is you don’t have a clue and you are just making stuff up
Sad, a Once Great Industry being savaged by the CHINESE WUHAN VIRUS unleashed by the Chinese Communist Party, CCP
How about desinfection sprays and uvc? killcovid19
LOL more changing of planes is basically a virus buffet. This whole thing is so stupid. Coronavirus lockdown, the overreaction of a lifetime.
Wtf
I was just on a plane on Thursday. It was no different except for shorter TSA lines and no in flight service. No mask was required and many who wore one took them off mid flight. I expect the experience to be similar when I go home in 6 days.
All by design...
Makes sense. I want to now stop in as many airports as I can.
I’ll drive. I don’t care how much longer it takes.
Too late, go back to normal.
That proves that Covid-19 is about one hundred million more effective in cutting emition than activists like GretaThunberg ，one unexpected side effect of the deadly pandemic😅
Shitlife
I guess that the person who wrote this article is the first one to stand up before the seatbelts lights go off.
😱😱😱
Sounds like a nightmare - both my older brother and his wife work for TSA (Thousands of People Standing Around)
Regarding the revenue fix to allow for some social distancing, seems like a simple fix (albeit unpopular); ticket prices increasing ~50% to account for 1/3 decrease in capacity (middle seats).
It is relative. It really doesn't take that long. It is a question of perspective. 10-15 minutes isn't too much to ask for the ability to travel.
Don't care as well, just gonna stay home thanks.
Welp. Just gonna stay home anyways. So
