It isn’t all about you, a mask is an appreciated courtesy to others protecting them from you. Requiring masks is one of the simplest things that can be done to restore confidence in the public. Confidence is what is needed to bring passengers back, and if they know their seat mate will be expected to take basic commonsense simple precautions then more people will have greater confidence in the safety of flying.

FWIW...Here's the issue I have with the mask. I have no underlying health issues, but when I wear a mask walking around a grocery store or the local Home Depot I begin to often feel lightheaded. I need to remove it for some time to feel normal. One can only imagine what it feels like at a cabin altitude of 7000'.

Dow Jones Newswires as of 0722, May 19th:
Shares of United Airlines Holdings Inc. (UAL) rallied 2.0% in premarket trading Tuesday, extending the 21% surge in the previous session,m after the air carrier said it has seen "moderate improvement" in demand and reduced cancellations during the second quarter, and expects further improvement in July. United said April gross bookings fell 95% from a year ago, with customer cancellations at "unprecedented" levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In May and June, United said scheduled capacity were down 90% from year ago levels, but it now expects July capacity to be down about 75% . Separately, the company said it expects 2020 adjusted capital expenditures (capex) to be below $4.5 billion , and 2021 capex to "close to" $2 billion . United does not expect to be required to take delivery of any new aircraft in 2022.

Sorry I stole this from another thread.
figured we could keep this in the good news topic.
hopefully more good news to come from here on out!
heres hoping that the April lows are far behind us. Tailwinds and clear skies to my fellow forumites.

Are you wearing a tight mask made out of plastic? Does it have a gimp ball-gag inside your mouth? Sorry dude, but if you get lightheaded walking around the store wearing a 'normal' mask then you probably DO have some underlying health issue. It could also be a little claustrophobia or anxiety.
