Do any airlines have vaccine or negative tests mandates for domestic flights? (regular, March)

Have to fly in March. If not, I hope it doesn’t change.

I think Hawaii is the only state requiring anything:

Otherwise, I do not think any domestic airlines are requiring any COVID nonsense aside from masks of course (federal mandate).

I believe you are correct so just to add to your post, masks can not be ventilated in any way and must be tight fitting to the face.

Right - no requirements for airlines - but for Hawaii, and, now, Puerto Rico (I know it's not a state, don't flame me...).


Otherwise - as gail said - regular mask works fine, but not vented, or hoodies, or some other clever scarf thingie. Just
wear a mask. They'll give you one if needed.


I do not think it will change (in March, or any other time) - as the travel industry will implode. You might think it would motivate people to get vaccines - but you can be sure that if folks are willing to lose their job before getting the shot - then they will be willing to NOT fly also.

I think there are vaccine requirements only for airline employees but not passengers currently on domestic flights.

The Federal mandate runs through March 18th. We'll see if the administration lets it go or triples down. I would think it would be hard to justify if the bottom drops out on Omicron as predicted.

Which means Potato Joe will quadruple down.

He's the dictionary definition of retarded and Covid is more a mental illness than respiratory virus at this point.
