I am not sure why, if an average passenger is vaccinated and is wearing a mask, which is required in US airports and on US flights (including chartered flights), there would be a lack of comfort in flying? The flight attendants wear masks for the entire flight and I have only seen a pilot leave the cockpit to use a forward restroom, not engaging with the passengers during the flight. So then, does the vaccine work and does masking help prevent the spread of Covid? If they do, then it would seem flying might be uncomfortable for some, Covid or not. Should they not work, then why require them?
