@AAQ, in spite of you trying frame every thread into a halacha – hashkafa arguement this is neither, there are 3 parts of this equation.

1. Flying on an airline owned by the Nazi party, Lufthansa was owned by the Nazi party and was active in the war efforts, the lack of sensitivity displayed by the 127 passengers on the flight is appalling, if @avira’s father an American born MO yid has the sensitivity not buy or rent German cars, children & grandchildren of survivors who have the sensitivity not to fly and airline owned by the Nazis, there are over 60 other airlines flying to that general area.

2. Lack of mask compliance, As a visibly frum Jew who works in corporate America and having worked under an openly anti semtic boss, I am very cognitive that my personal behavior gets reflected to Jews as a whole and I do my utmost to follow the rule to the T, that being said having flow a dozen time since the outbreak of Corna [you have yet to set foot on a plane] I can tell you that the vast majority of the flight crews prowl the aisles looking to pounce of someone who is not mask compliance. The majority of the airlines are mask free, the yidden who had an issue with mask should have flow on a mask free airline.

3. Group punishment, make everyone pay for the mistakes of a few, that may work in a army boot camp but it does not work in the free market, the airline know they goofed and said so.
