The rumbling on this has been growing over the last week. It’s interesting to see both sides of the MSM picking up on it.
On a side note - it’s been one year to the day since I last put on the uniform because of this mandate (no pay/no points Guard guy). While I’m not holding my breath, it does appear some sanity may be returning to our overlords.
I’m guessing the rest of the airlines will be announcing similar plans soon.
To those about to bail, my advice is to decide where you want to live, then pick a company with a base there, or the one with the easiest commute.
This guy...
What amazes me, is that 9 out of 10 times, I see ole Petey on talking head news, he's never discussing anything transportation related. He's always throwing in his two cents on things way outside the purview of the Secretary of Transportation.
Of course now that his travel plans have been negatively impacted, maybe he will start doing transportation stuff.
Remember when Trump couldn’t walk down a ramp at West Point?! His twitter reply to the uproar is so ironic two years later…

Went throught LGA today and was thrilled to see that despite NY state keeping the public transit mask mandate, the majority of pax and crew members I saw chose to ignore the automated mask requirement announcements.
Good luck trying to turn that shit back on when cases start “up-ticking” before the mid-terms.
