If you don’t want to wear a mask on a plane you can try Spirit airlines.
According to an American Airlines employee you could try flying with Spirit if you don’t want to wear a mask.

It wasn't a factual statement. It was more of a subtle dig that people who behave like that usually fly spirit. Like, "you're low class trash. Maybe try spirit."

I think it was an honest suggestion. That Spirit has many flights to south Florida and walk up fares can be generally very cheap.
I have heard Spirit agents gives suggestions to fly American after a customer demands a refund. I always wonder how the travel story ends after getting their $75 back from Spirit and having to pay the $400 walk up fare at another airline…

1 hour later they were back complaining again to the same agent, wanting their old tickets back. Apparently SWA walkup fare was clearly more but the best part was that SWA flight was now running more delayed than the LAS Spirit flight was. So glad they didn’t give them their seats back, as we were oversold.

At this point it seems airline management, due to full flights, and the unions (Alpa Afa) lobby efforts are keeping this thing going. The good news is it should end soon as airlines can’t get ramp employees to load airplanes when it’s 110 degrees and they have to wear a mask.

I haven’t seen a ramper in a mask anywhere in the country recently for what it’s worth.

Spirit CEO has pretty much said masks are gone once Feds end the mandate.
Everyone wants them gone.
