not sure I agree with the statement of our FAs are really good about compliance. Of all the flights I've been on in the back only one FA kept telling people to have their mask on. Most sit in the back with their mask off the whole flight while they're not serving etc. I've even seen some that dont wear it at all. I'm assuming a medical reason for that.
Bottom line is everyone knows they dont work yet people dont want to be the one to hurt another's feelings so we have these dumb policies.
I'm super curious to see how people react to AA and UA no longer restricting seats July 1. I'm all.dor capping the plane now I finally dont have to squeeze in between two people when non revving.
