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.

Hopefully the flight attendants passed the trash bag for people to dump their useless masks in BEFORE the “mask optional” flights.
They are laying all over the grocery parking lots.
No kidding.
I went shopping last Friday and at the super market (which doesn’t require masks) they had a sign:
“Please do not dispose of your masks in the shopping carts”
Hahahahahaaaaa, too late, too bad. You fascist/nazis enforced those mandates by bullying passengers trying to eat & drink & throwing families with little children off your planes.
I’ll never forget what you did & you’ll never get a freaking penny from me again. Not. Ever.
Me too mom.
This should never, ever be allowed to happen again. Do not ever comply with evil people who hate you.
“It’s over.”
It is NEVER over. There will be an appeal. Many sheep will still wear the mask. And the threat of MANDATORY VACCINATION in order to fly is back on the table again.
These people will not stop until they take their last breath. That’s their nature.
If you think this is over you’ve let down your guard…
Yep, as long as they breathe they carry the message. The Redcoats didn’t stand down until a sufficient number of them were bug food. That’s how real life works.
This is simply another Lawfare game tactic from a corrupt judiciary.
Um I think the group US FREEDOM FLYERS will have something to say about mandatory fake vaccines……another incident with a American Airlines captain on April 9…….why do you think there are so many cancellations……it aint the weather folks……
Uh, American Freedom Flyers isn’t going to stop them from mandating PASSENGERS get vaccines. That’s it if their lane.
I happen to be a pilot, one who called in sick for weeks when company-mandated vaccines were pushed on us. I did it on my own initiative to throw sand in the gears long before AFF was even remotely a thing.
Good for you!
The masks served as a form of de-humanization to me, firstly. Censoring people’s faces, along with it a good part of our expression/conversation. When I see people in masks, it appears they want to censor their face. I work with a Jehovah’s Witness and he is still wearing his mask, just got another “booster” a couple weeks back and is just 35 years old (hockey player, doesn’t come off as a weak guy, at least physically). Doesn’t impress me much on joining up with his “religion” or selling me on his faith in God (if he feels the need to question God re wearing a mask vs utilizing the amazing immune system(s) He has provided us, most of us anyway, we are fortunate.. and what to speak of denaturing and experimenting on his body, God’s temple and all!) The stupid hurts.
JWs eschew transfusions but are ok with the jab?
The people in Southern California are behaving as if though we are still living through 2020. Seriously. I noticed the vast majority appear to be foreign born.
The foreign born, of all people, should know they can’t comply their way out of tyranny. If they could, they wouldn’t have fled their home countries in the first place.
They want the plebs, or shall I say livestock, to be lulled into a state of normalcy. The fake news junkys will think everything is back to normal. Hec, they might even believe Biden cured covid. Although the Bidinista regime doesnt need their vote, (as Joe Biden mentioned leading up to the 2020 national election), dropping the tyrannical mandates makes their efforts to rig the midterms a lot easier for the media to spin.
Go my Marionette Vision Goggles on.
so far so good.
now other major corporations, unions, school boards, city mayors, congress , state government, military.
great airlines…that’s a definite win…a little long and overdue /s
but there are still many employers who are still hung up on masks.
It will be their own political demise at this time.
which speaks to the actual motivation that owners of these huge airlines have:
to restore GROWTH in airtravel = happy satisfied enriched shareholders.
Watch the economy start moving….it’s just a matter of time before this biden administration lets looser hold on some of the big oil and nat gas industries.
I think biden handler’s have bought the farm on this one.
they KNOW people will not accept that biden had anything to do with the upcoming bullish ride of this pandemic and all the miserable failures and unconscionable actions by the USG THAT CAUSED THE RECESSION OF 2020-2022..
his handlers have to realize that coming down the line is perhaps the most important point in national politics right here in 2022. If they screw this up, it’s over for the democrats.
They will pump up the economy even if they have to fake the numbers.
which they will definitely do…manipulate the data to present a more robust and growing economy.
I’m glad this is over. However, it’s frustrating that these clowns can dream this nonsense on a whim and have it implemented the next day, and then it takes years to overrule it.
That’s because there is zero political will to override the New World Order. Remember that the RepubliCONS behind sixPence went all in on the PLANdemic.
They *conspired* to carry out a treasonous COUP. And with zero repercussions the tyranny will continue.
It is NEVER over. There will be an appeal. Many sheep will still wear the mask. And the threat of MANDATORY VACCINATION in order to fly is back on the table again.
These people will not stop until they take their last breath.
The nazi psychopath tyrants will look for any opportunity to reinstate their insane anti science tyranny.
They will be back in the next 12 months….hopefully people will know to resist next time. All of the politicians (and World Economic Forum Great Reset architects) that did this to us and our kids should rot forever.
and that’s actually the greatest risk in this entire manipulation.
that one day an actual real crisis exists, and the people having been completely tortured with very bad and knowingly bad “science” and “law”, may some day refuse to react to an actual real crisis….
this was always going to be the problem with the loss of trust….that one day when it really is needed, it will not be found.
it’s a type of social psyops opportunity failures.
they invested and well well beyond reason and substance on this one has left very poor chances any investments and confidence going forward is lost.
while it may seem unlikely the next crisis at least in the short term is going to be another pandemic, you can imagine the kinds of other crises that are likely to happen soon.
world war.
severe recession/depression.
terrorism
riots
companies imploding
perhaps even major natural disaster events.
the problem with a corrupt central government is that it squanders the very thing that makes it authentic: the ability to get the right message and the right reaction from the people. you know, as in serving the interests of people and not themselves.
when people begin to understand just how wealthy some of these so called officials have become on the basis they all complicitly screamed for more mandates and control over the very fundamentals of what makes a nation thrive and safe and secure, then the people will have an even more active dissent.
we are still in stage 3 – awareness.
soon to be stage 4..- transfer of power.
I believe stage 4 is going to happen this summer.
2022, summer.
maybe fall.
the other shoe is about to drop.
the mother of all shoes. I don’t know exactly what form we will call it, but I believe there is something afoot that will play out in a very dangerous way this summer.
It’s likely going to be the coming collapse of the US economy as the markets start pricing in all of the damage that has accumulated.
I think the economy slams shut.
we ain’t seen nothing yet.
Bayonettes in the gut for all the petty tyrants who felt they were king for a day(s) strealing our Liberties…..all institutions.
The ‘want to be left alone crowd’ grows it’s numbers 100 fold everyday.
The private conversations within the citizenry grows the ‘i’ve had enough’ ranks
This evil washed over humanity is at crescendo
The more returning to commonsense reality the more difficult it becomes for Libtards. Today i asked a Libtard; What is it that you fuel your car and you are not mad? What is it that your money buys less and you are not scared? What is it you watch a Biden video and you are not embarrassed?
I mean seriously, are you really that much different than me?
Appeal to higher left wing court in 3…2…1…
This is a long way from over. They’ll pivot and come at us again. Mandatory vaccinations for air travel anyone?
Watch.
When Youngkin ended it for kids in school the Commies had hissy fits.
When will masks come off for grocery store employees and elsewhere? I do hope the trend for face freedom is contagious.
I do not know how people have done it long term, especially those that have very active jobs and need to breathe.
I took a photo of supermarket employees and customers in Santa hats on Christmas Eve in a store in Junction Texas and sent it to my lib friends in NYC. They were horrified… So glad I live in Texas now
Not this time. Won’t happen
I will always be sad that the pilots and cabin attendants, airport employees and passengers all obeyed this inane mandate.
We all should have just said no to the mandatory mask – let it be optional – or go bankrupt when those who know masks do nothing didn’t show up to work or fly.
I never wore one at work as a pilot.
Had to play their game to get TO work. Resisted that in every way possible right up to the threshold of being permanently barred from flying.
An army of one isn’t enough…
In Sept. I was stuck in the Chicago airport for 7- 8 hours in the middle of the night and early morning. Since people in airports are mostly obnoxious, I went to my empty terminal to wait for my flight at 11 a.m.
I removed my mask and rested comfortably- no one bothered me and much to my surprise when the gate agents and other airport personnel showed up around 5 a.m. NONE of them were wearing their face diapers….lol.
This whole mask thing was a joke. I never wore one unless I had too-at CostCo when this idiocy had started I wore my crochet’d scarf that had giant holes in it…hahahaha I drank my drink through a straw and the holes in my scarf. The stupidity lived large.
Let this be a lesson to the world. Never, NEVER, EVER let (((them))) do this to the world again. Trust your instincts and don’t EVER comply again with an unpopular mandate. There’s a reason it had to be a mandate and not just a common sense decision independently taken by all individuals.
And just who is this (((them))) of which to you speak? And are you absolving anyone who is not (((them)))?
The Khazarian mafia and their legion of minions. Looking for that anti-semite hook? Less than 3% of those claiming to be Jewish have one Jewish drop of blood in them. Don’t let the name-stealers mugwump yah.
Many of us never complied to their mandates. Never, ever masked and will never get the dvax.
What about trains? Is Amtrak dumping their requirement for ‘face coverings’?
Not to mention buses , trolleys, tourist railroads, etc.
The order covers all public transit, not just airplanes, so I would assume that Amtrak, Greyhound, city transit systems drop mask requirements, too.
I was in a local grocery store yesterday and the only Maskavites were the checkout guy and bag boy – both part time from the local college. Sad indeed.
Crazy gonna do crazy!
It’s a definite–here’s your sign!
I was out walking recently…. Yaaaay! And a lady rides by on a bike…wearing a face mask. No one else on walk path..no heavy traffic…sigh..and she’s wearing a mask?
Maybe she had allergies 🤧?
Still chuckling about it.
If there weren’t mandates, that’s all you’d have seen for 2 years. They didn’t like looking like the crazies, so they forced it on everyone and a very willing government was happy to be their enforcer.
at the church,i see more young adults wearing masks than older ones. Bureaucrats has broke them.
They grew up wearing helmets and knee pads just to step outside, so it stands to reason they’re scared of removing their protective gear.
There are far too many true believers still running around, or driving around all alone, with their face diapers on.
And yet oddly nearly none of those 81 million zealots have a big buy or the ho bumper sticker. Why is that?
(big guy too late for the edit)
The mask wearers were always the crazies. This whole farce was about appeasing the nuts.
Same with the trannies…appease the crazies or else.
Someone should tell Philly.
No masks, ever again. Period. End of story.
why did it take 2 yrs?
Because we’ve lost our Republic.
The current phase of the mission has been accomplished. Nothing happens in a vacuum. There’s always an objective. A mission. I get that people are relieved or happy. Those of us who’ve always resisted oppressive government, for decades, likely are not. We remain suspicious. This is far from over. In fact I expect it to get much worse. We’ve not yet begun to fight. Then things will get real.
Exactly! A conservative judge could have done the exact same 2 years ago! Why didnt they?
Just checked some Philly news sources. The airport will still require masks inside the airport. because the City reinstated its mask mandate.
The transit system will not require masks, as it is regulated by the DOT, which will not enforce the mandate after the court ruling. (It’s the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Area system, BTW, not Philadelphia Transit).
Perhaps there needs to be lawsuits for ‘forced’ MASK wearing health consequences:

Covidians will keep on masking.
“More comfortable keeping yours on? Go right ahead… the choice is yours“
F&&k you, United. You only agree with “choices” that suit your politics.
It ends on Patriot’ Day. We have a new reason for celebrating the holiday. May we never forget.
conservative websites you say? which ones?
Now we need to abolish the 9/11 security protocols.
Interesting you should mention that. Last time I traveled (late March) the airport security in Colorado Springs and at Dulles (DC) had dropped all kinds of security rules. I went through a regular metal detector, shoes on, in the Springs. At Dulles, they were telling people NOT to disrobe or remove all their laptops.
The airlines send a letter last month petitioning to remove the mandate. In it they talked indirectly about how it was pissing everyone off for no reason.
I think this judge saved the government from itself. My sense traveling in late March was that the folks running the airports knew they were holding onto a time bomb of anger.
I fly again next week…it’ll be interesting if the same airports continue to back off on the post 9/11 security nonsense.
$10 bucks says the White House tried to get the CDC to back down on the mandate, but the crazies at CDC couldn’t let it go. So they got a 2 week extension.
Interesting. I’ve noticed it seems random. Sometimes random implementation is part of the security checklist. Or it’s just haphazard. Who knows?
Happy day. We are flying into TN on Wed to look for our new home…fleeing So Cal! This is a sign of freedom and I am over the moon!
The first time I hear the airlines announce “we respect your choice to wear a mask” I’m gonna yell very loudly that they don’t respect choice at all and forced masking for over a year and threatened people with prison.
Just spoke w/ a friend in San Fran area tonite.
I predict you are going to loooove being in. TN!
Enjoy!!
(>>> And do NOT overpay for a home. Locals hate it when prices gets driven up by people fr/ high priced areas. Just an FYI.)
Biden’s White House opposes lifting the ban and will no doubt appeal. Figures.
F J B
They will also use this as the catalyst to impose mandatory vaccination in order to fly…

My response to the end of federal mandates on air travel.
(Video comment linked in gettr post)…
https://www.gettr.com/post/p1600es7a3f
The masked to unmasked ratio at the airport on Friday when I fly will be 90:10 or 99:1.
Nobody except the crazies thinks they work. The people I’m most angry with will be the Liberals walking around without masks after they swore up one side and down the other that not wearing one was attempted murder.
So now attempted murder is okay because: reasons.
Remember to tell everyone you know:
– the CDC didn’t end the mandate
– the Biden regime didn’t end the mandate
– Congress didn’t end the mandate
A TRUMP APPOINTED JUDGE ended the mandate. MAGA bitches.
So what about the need for Covid test prior to re-entering the country? Only for flights, not land or water border crossing.
And yet over half STILL wear the face diapers
Yeah!! I am flying Wednesday!!! Maskless!!!!
FREEDOM!! #RISEUP…let the CovIDIOTS continue to Muzzle forever if they CHOOSE to! Let Sane, Rational, Critical-Thinking HUMANS Breathe!!!!
Thank God
This isn’t over until the instigators who pushed this on people are in jail.
Biden’s “Covid Czar” announced “The pandemic is not over” just today.
That idiot fool needs his tongue cutout
We have won a small skirmish, not even a battle, yet. Be vigilant Treepers!
Based on a number of Treepers discussing how they don’t fly anymore or not wanting to ‘give’ their money to the airlines, I think the balance sheets are not as rosy as TPTB would have you think.
Are people really able to afford to fly?
I have my doubts while they spin the ‘increased demand’. Perhaps demand seems high due to the reduction of available flights due to covid residual or the costs of fuel/inflation impacting consumers? Am not in the travel industry but am trying to think deeper.
We are entering an earnings or financial cycle for the airlines. And an election cycle. And no matter how they spin it, the airlines feel the cost of increased fuel costs.
Sorry to be an Eeyore, but “There are trillions at stake”.
I found an article to ruminate upon:
https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/us-airline-demand-costs-soaring-earnings-kick-off-2022-04-12/
The Xiden administration and those pulling his strings will surely try to force masks on everyone once again. Hopefully, enough people have awakened to the fact that Covid was all BS used for political gain.
Big Harma bought off politicians, hospitals, media, threatened the medical community, forced deadly treatments, ignored proven therapeutics, and falsified the data regarding the number of deaths.
The Covid scam was years in the making and was used to install a sick corrupt old man into the WH. The greatest worldwide hoax ever created.
They will appeal this ruling for reversal. Meanwhile, watch for mandatory vaccination in order to travel… Evil people keeping us in a constant state of agitation…
Masks lifted FOR NOW! Don’t get too too comfortable folks……this was just a test to see how other signs of more severe authority will pan out. Time to get ready……..pray to our father in heaven that this truly IS IT and that the Karen’s don’t get too violent because of the face diaper ruling, Be on guard all the time……
Yup, watch for mandatory vaccination in order to travel… They never give up. It is never over.
Just heard on the news that Doctors are finding particles from the masks in peoples lungs. I do recall a Dr. warning about this shortly after they mandated masks an refused to wear one. I had a cloth mask if needed. I now notice that every Dr. office I go to has a sign at the entrance “No cloth masks allowed” sure it has to do with $$$$
“It’s over.”
It is NEVER over. There will be an appeal. Many sheep will still wear the mask. And the threat of MANDATORY VACCINATION in order to fly is back on the table again.
These people will not stop until they take their last breath. That’s their nature.
“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.”
If it were not for RINOs, this would say something about how future elections will turn out.
It’s amazing how quickly this whole charade collapsed, and all it took was a single judge willing to enforce the law.
It’s “over”…..for now.
Still waiting to see what they have in store for us come Fall – they know they will be annihilated at the Polls and they are NOT about to give up this power.
Last night millions of overweight cat mommies took a couple of extra antidepressants with their box wine dinner and cried themselves to sleep in their empty beds.
