The U.S. Department of Transportation on Wednesday proposed new rules designed to protect air passengers. One would restrict serving peanuts. The restriction could work in one of three ways:
•Ban the serving of all peanut products on domestic flights and international flights to and from the United States
•Ban the serving of all peanut products on flights where a passenger with peanut allergy requests a peanut-free flight in advance
•Require a peanut-free buffer zone in the immediate area of the passenger with a documented severe allergy to peanuts if a peanut-free flight is requested
The public will have 60 days to comment. Go to www.regulations.gov (Docket No. DOT-OST-2010-0140) and let your voice be heard!
