?Nothing like a post title with a double meaning.
Air Canada must provide a buffer zone on flights for people with nut allergies, the Canadian Transportation Agency has ruled.
The airline must consider passengers with nut allergies as disabled and give them specific accommodations accordingly within 30 days, the agency says. It has also ordered Air Canada to come up with an appropriate section of seats where passengers with nut allergies would be seated.
. . .
"An exclusion or buffer zone where passengers within that zone will be advised that they can only eat foods that are peanut-free or nut-free and that they will only be offered peanut-free or nut-free foods as part of Air Canada's onboard snack or meal will also address the risk of other passengers eating peanuts or nuts," the agency said in its ruling.
The only bright side I can see is that nobody will have to fly next to the folks who came up with this decision.
