Nut Free Zone

After spending countless hours in the air this past summer (over 38,000 km or just under 100 hours to be exact), I wondered when this kind of thing would happen.

I honestly don't see how a few rows of "nut free zone" is really going to work, and IMHO it appears that airlines are already doing a lot to accommodate those with allergies and special needs.

CBC News - Health - Air Canada must create nut-free zones

I could go on a tangent about how I feel that those needs of a few do not outweigh those of the other HUNDREDS of people on any given aircraft, but I will not.

That being said: If you do not like the policies of an airline or have serious medical or other physical issues that make flying difficult, then sorry to say, you will have to take other methods of transportation.

Flying is NOT a right. It is nothing if not a privilege
