Were now having 40 plus 1000 new cases a day. I would not be surprised if we go up to a 100,000 a day. If this does not turn around. Well as of this morning, the u. S. Has more than 2. 6 million confirmed cases of coronavirus again thats according to the latest numbers from Johns Hopkins university. 3 states are now required people coming from california to quarantine for 14 days include new york, new jersey and connecticut all 3 issued travel advisories after california saw spike in coronavirus cases, the restrictions include travel by train car or bus plane, however, it does not apply to things like stopping at rest stops or air travel. Layovers. Yeah, and if you are going to take a plane and you want to be a away safely from your neighbor, the neighbor. Fly delta or southwest. Because american is joining united and spirit and theyre filling planes to capacity. So that means the middle seat is going to have somebody right next to you will tran is live at sfo with the details. Hi well. It is starting today very as far as American Airlines United States Largest Airline carrier and you can see behind me not as busy as it once was exactly one year ago, especially heading into the Holiday Weekend but it has picked up since the pandemic in fact last sunday was the busiest day at us airports since the pandemic started the reason why not that they were all generous about and even they admit it. The reason why the center seat was not filled because so many people were not flying during the pandemic a lot of airplanes just sat on the tarmac and once they started to fly they didnt fill it up so a lot of passengers have plenty of room to choose to be away from each other. But now that air travel has picked up the airplanes are starting to fill up a lot of them are trying to book at to full capacity, United Airlines. They say they are doing that as well theyre giving people the option if they dont want to be on a say a 70 full flight they can transfer to an empty your flight but lets face it if your schedule is tight. What are you going to do and a lot of people just have to grin and bear it, however, there was one airline passenger. We spoke to with United Airlines who was having none of that. And theyre putting us in a plane like like like this talking us in those also of mind blowing past thats lee. Id rather just leave you said yesterday. We can walk out we can you can can you can reschedule your another flight so make sure our walkout and then i told the lady at the front and then shes a what about the first classes that im like first classes. Shoulder, surely, its fully booked. As far as the other airlines dorial in quickly show you the check for a look at that right is not busy usually before the 4th of july weekend we would see a chess snaking around all of these turnstiles here not the case it is considerably of course emptier than it was a year ago, but it is filling up and the other airlines they are noticing that you talked about southwest airlines. They say for now theyre going to monitor the situation there doing deep cleaning the bringing in air filters in between flights to try to get some of the particles out but even they said its a case by case situation that come fall they too and all the other line once they start to but the flights a fuller. That you could be shoulder to shoulder 3 to an aisle and there is no empty space so this could be the trend moving forward as a lot of people in this race and ari a lot of people still think its a hoax they dont think they should wear a mask and that the airlines they say theyre at the very least in forcing people to wear a mask even if the center seat is filled. I and well bring up the mask issue because you you know several layer tight mask on and i saw guy just behind you through the air for walking through the bandanna. They found that the single layer like a bandanna. Here youre going to call for sees its going to like 8 feet something youre where michael 2 inches. So if youre finding yourself shoulder to shoulder nexus im an airplane you look at them asking oh yeah i think im going to skip this flight that kind of thing its going to be up to passengers. Daria. Ive seen you come to work you wipe down everything before you sit down i think youd be the last person on earth sitting in the center after seeing how clean you are yeah i know and its a its all to defend on where you got to go and who you want to fly, i would say right now. Delta and southwest, if you have to fly. Thanks a lot. Well, 5. 12 right now still ahead on the kron 4 morning news, california is reexamining policing on its School Campuses.
