here’s a perfect storm brewing for travelers ahead of Thanksgiving that threatens to make U.S. airports over the holiday weekend more chaotic than usual. Air travel is rebounding, with airport checkpoint screenings up to roughly 80% of pre-pandemic passenger levels, according toBusy travel weekends mean crowded airports.
But even before Thanksgiving, another big date is looming. November 22 is the deadline by which all federal employees must either be vaccinated against Covid-19 or submit to frequent coronavirus testing, perAs of right now, the TSA appears to be way off target. “We have about 60% of our workforce has been vaccinated, that that number needs to go quite a bit higher over the next few weeks,” TSA Administrator David PekoskeStill, the agency is not hitting the panic button.
“My understanding is that the current percentage reflects employees that TSA doesn’t yet have vaccination information on, and is not an accurate reflection of its vaccination rate,” suggested the spokesperson, noting that TSA personnel do not have government-issued equipment and there may simply be a lag in vaccinated employees not yet reporting their Covid status.
Has nothing to do with the unvaccinated
Flying delta exclusively now because they don’t force-vax their employees. Barring one pre-planned flight, I am done with AmericanAir and SouthwestAir until they stop violating the basic human rights of their pilots & attendants. 😉
