Following a federal judge vacating the federal mask mandate on transportation, the TSA responded, “TSA (Transportation Security Administration) will not enforce its Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and transportation hubs at this time.”
Within hours, various airlines began notifying customers the mask mandate is gone:
♦ American Airlines – “In accordance with the Transportation Security Administration no longer enforcing the federal face mask mandate, face masks will no longer be required for our customers and team members at U.S. airports and on domestic flights.” (link)
♦ Southwest Airlines – “As a result of this development, effectively immediately, Southwest Employees and Customers will be able to choose whether they would like to wear a mask, and we encourage individuals to make the best decision to support their personal wellbeing.” (link)
♦ Delta Airlines – “Effective immediately, masks are optional for all airport employees, crew members and customers inside U.S. airports and on board all aircraft domestically, as well as on most international flights.” (link)
♦ Alaska Airlines – “Effective immediately, all Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air guests and employees have the option to wear a mask while traveling in the U.S. and at work. Masks are no longer required for travel and will be optional.” (link)
♦ United Airlines – No press release. “Masks are no longer required on domestic flights, select international flights (dependent upon the arrival country’s requirements) or at U.S. airports. More comfortable keeping yours on? Go right ahead… the choice is yours (you look dino-mite either way)!” ~Twitter
Various videos show airline employees in a state of jubilation cheering the announcements.
The professional political left is very sad, apoplectic and filled with anxiety. However, the overwhelming majority are happy. This example again reflects how small that minority of rabid maskers was. Easily a 4:1 ratio.
Additionally, with all the major carriers and the TSA making official statements, it would be almost impossible to reinstate the mask mandate now.
It’s over.
Plane applauded as the stewardess announced the end of the mandate. She broke into tears as she got to take off her mask for the first time in 2 years 😭 pic.twitter.com/WlCpZk30QM

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is your pilot speaking. This is the most important announcement I’ve ever made. The federal mask mandate is over. Take off your mask if you choose!”
A wonderful moment mid flight on @alaskaair today! pic.twitter.com/nWSatDRB83

On Delta, announcing the end of their mask mandate.
Can you hear the people sing? pic.twitter.com/alIO79BvXE

This reminds me of my church where we did not have to wear a mask during service! The pastor of 28 years who had been on stage thousands of times had tears in his eyes the singing was so loud! Amen!
The pilots and stewardesses were so scared of the virus that they went ahead and announced the end of the mask mandate mid-flight, hmmm
No wonder JoeBama is polling in the 30’s (actually probably in the 20’s in reality).
Doesn’t matter, I will never travel by scareline again
THIS single chapter of the madness is over, but there are many more remaining. There y’are, SD: FIFY.
You may continue to use juju beads, magic amulets, voodoo dolls, and other talismans to ward of The Coof which are proven just as effective as a mask.
So, I made it through two years of this BS without ever wearing a face diaper. I guess I’m not enough of an outlaw to qualify.
I once wore a coffee filter, taped to the side of my face. I wrote F— the mask mandate on it. And cut holes for the mouth and nose.
A few people laughed. Others looked just plain frightened, and some of them are now gone. Jabbed to death. Or pneumonia. That type of thing.
I didn’t wear a muzzle until I needed to go to a gestapo doctor or a hospital. I refused physical therapy because of this requirement. Last year a doctor wore the his on his chin, the last one wore no mask, nor any of his staff. My bone doc said that the Texas dept of health threatened lisenses of those who did not. Thank you gov Greg Abbott /s.
Perhaps we can get back to bank and jewelry store thieves being the only face diaper wearers?
I was shocked the first time I went to the grocery store and thought I’d come across a mass robbery!
Anyone who still wears one, except for our friend who was wearing one two years ahead of this madness, I will assume they are sick and won’t get within ten-feet of them, or that their IQ is too low for association.
well some face diaper wearers amongst BLM and antifa “shoppers” and arsonists too
The virtue signalers are apoplectic. Hilarious to read their reactions on the Twatter…the only good reason to use the app!
It took a judge to shut down the mandate …….not the useless President.
The Psychopaths aren’t done with us, and this isn’t over. Until people begin to go after the architects, movers and shakers involved with their pogrom of mass murder which they inflicted on all of humanity across the planet this will never be over.
“Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.” ~ Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill (1874–1965) quote at the Lord Mayor’s Luncheon, Mansion House, November 10, 1942
“Psychologists who have studied the syndrome believe that the bond is initially created when a captor threatens a captive’s life, deliberates, and then chooses not to kill the captive. The captive’s relief at the removal of the death threat is transposed into feelings of gratitude toward the captor for giving him or her life.” – Read more here: https://www.britannica.com/science/Stockholm-syndrome
Yes…they need to held responsible…unfortunately they will probably skate…
As Sundance recently said – we must not allow them to skate – THEY MUST PAY.
Nice that the airlines feel relieved that they no longer have to enforce a mask mandate but they were/are part of the problem and not the solution. The airline CEOs could have shutdown this mandate nonsense if on day one they refused to adopt it and just said no mask or we don’t fly. Also, think about the impact if FedEx, UPS, etc., would have joined in support. Joe and the clown show would have huffed and puffed but a one week grounding of all commercial flights would have been devastating to their totalitarian aspirations. In all reality, how is a mask going to protect anyone in an elbow to elbow crowded airplane cabin? It isn’t. Note, the same could have been done with the vaccine mandates as none of these actions were Constitutional. Bottom line is that there are way to many woke corporations that enjoy the under the table feeding at the government trough.
totally agree, all of this contributed to the loss of humanity. All need to be held accountable…will that happen? probably not! and so it moves on with zero justice.
No one has stated things more clearly than you, Samanna. Thank you.
Not over in Canada!

Oh, Canada !
Next must follow – end the vaccine mandates!!! Totally illegal – unconstitutional. How many lost their jobs, their businesses, their families, or their lives due to these horrific mandates? And still they exist. My “new & former” internist (dropped her after 1 visit) went ballistic when I answered her question that I was NOT vaccinated. Of course and fortunately – her harassment was all but totally garbled by the oversized mask she was wearing at 10 feet distance from me – her “patient”! As a health professional, I am totally disgusted and disheartened at the unprofessional, weak, whimpering compliance from all those I formerly admired and thought ethical. They’re either complete imbeciles or put their “jobs” ahead of all they promised to value. They have lost the confidence of most of us.
So how much money did we taxpayers stick up the airline’s butts to keep them and their employees in the slop while we suffered? Screw them and their lifting of rules. They’re nothing more than fascists. They’ll turn on us in an instant if their handlers tell them to. Expect it.
Speaking of the madness of masking, this is quite an interesting read: https://www.city-journal.org/the-failed-covid-policy-of-mask-mandates
