Flying next week. Will wearing a mask along with a face shield be too much? Can people flying please tell me if they see people wearing face shields?

Now really isn’t a time to be worried about if others will be wearing the same fashion as you— it’s about health and safety!! Wear both even if no one else is.

I flew cross country and was wearing N95 plus face shield all the time. I also had a dozen pairs of gloves and I used 6 pairs plus used almost 4 oz of purell. Had additional sleeves so I don’t touch anything with arm plus a seat cover I purchased for flights that covered all the seat. So almost nothing touched. Many people were disinfecting and one was even wearing kind of hazmat. There is no definition of excess. It’s about comfort level beyond the minimum required.

PM1- you’re right. People can do what makes them feel safer. You do you, D1.

Someone on my flight had a face shield and my only thought was “I’m jealous”. Do it!

Do it, no one will bat an eye. Had multiple people in face shields on my last flight

I flew for the first time (mask, eye shield, saddlebag of sanitizer). One passenger was in a NASA style space helmet. As noted above there’s no such thing as being too cautious. Here’s one tip - if you are like me and require a cocktail or 3 on a 5 hour flight as well of tons of water, buy a pack of colorful bendy straws! I know, I know, bad for environment, but good for sipping any beverage under your mask. Have a safe flight! (Such a loaded statement in COVID times).

No, wear a mask.

People are not as prepared as they were two months ago. Masks are still required during flight but I haven’t seen any face shield during my last two trips. That being said two three months ago many people were wearing face shields and gloves and even full body plastic covers so no one is gonna care to look at you if you board on the plane protected

Face mask is definitely overkill

For those who have flown, how crowded was your flight?

Delta is decent too when it comes to blocking seats. United has already been all over the news for refusing to do that, so I would just skip that airline altogether.

They should let you push the button to deploy the o2 mask. And sell you an optional full face mask for it.

Better safe than sorry

To all the people searching PGs, i would suggest not to go with any online bookings like nestaway, zolostays.

The ideal thing is to land in hyderabad, book a hotel for two days and then go to office nearby area and search for PGs, you will get 100+ pgs in each location. Have a look at the room size, ventilation , bed size , if required taste the food also before booking PG. In case you need flat then also you will see " To let " boards everywhere, just call the number
