Question Will they force a vaccine on us?

As a requirement to fly, will they mandate we have a COVID vaccination?


They will probably make it mandatory to go to college, or back to K-12, maybe even entering government buildings... what about flying?

Let’s hope so. Sonic you are free to be free of vaccines. Just don’t expect to be allowed to mingle with the rest of us. Plenty of cabins in Alaska where you can homeschool your kids and live unencumbered by the duties and civic requirements of living in a modern society with your fellow humans.

I hope so....None of the things you reference have anything to do with resolving the Covid issue.

Ridiculous. It will be difficult enough to get immunizations to the people who actually WANT to get them. Forcing those who don’t want to get an immunization to get them is worse than herding cats. Ask anyone who had the misfortune to draw the extra duty of squadron mobility officer in the military and had to track that cr@p. And THERE you could give out Article 15s to apply leverage....

If you have a vaccine then why would you be worried about me not having one?

I wouldn't be worried at all. But not everyone can be vaccinated. The healthy should do their part.

Or you can be paranoid and selfish and watch Jenny McCarthy Youtube videos.

Because you'll scare off the pax and other crew, which are necessary for my financial security. Plan on mandatory for crew. Medical personal have mandatory vaccination requirements for their job.

As somebody pointed out, Alaska is wide open and there are even flying jobs up there. Or take a LOA and wait it out.

The good news is the requirement will probably go away once the bug is beaten down in a few years.

I have actually thought I might not be the company but other countries. You better hope you can stay completely domestic at that point but I could easily see countries making it an entry requirement.
