A #foodallergy mom has filed a @USDOT complaint re @Allegiant. Says she and 8-yr-old son were removed from a plane for "being unruly" - just because she asked if nuts could not be served due to son's severe allergies. Writer @wenmondo explains incident & fallout. @NoNutTraveler
From the FBI's most unwanted to partners for life, their first hug to their last (on camera at least!) Today marks 31 years since #TheXFiles first aired on FOX. Happy Anniversary to the best show and the best fandom ever!
Glad to add my thoughts on this excellent @AllergicLiving piece re @FoodAllergy Launching Boycott @MarsGlobal Candy over Hungry Skies campaign https://t.co/s0n0Lfmhk5
Adding a tagline to remind folks to always listen to flight attendants simply doesn’t address the complexities of flying with #peanutallergy
The consistency in how #flightcrew handle passengers with #foodallergies is anything but consistent. Flying with food allergies is an akin to a game of roulette, each flight a new roll of the proverbial dice. Every flight it is uncertain if crew members will accommodate #nutallergies, and this adds tremendous unnecessary stress. Relying on individual crew members' knowledge and mood for food allergy safety is a huge burden on the allergic passenger. Encouraging millions of flyers to choose Snickers will only compound this burden.
@FoodAllergy calls for FA community to #BoycottSnickers until @MarsGlobal stops ad campaign promoting peanutty Snickers as the go-to airplane snack. FARE says not just insensitive, potentially dangerous with #peanutallergy. We get more from FARE's Sung Poblete + @NoNutTraveler.
🚨 ACT NOW 🚨 We are asking @MarsGlobal to stop their @SNICKERS “Hungry Skies” campaign, which isn’t just insensitive —it undoes decades of advocacy work to make plane travel safe for patients with life-threatening peanut allergies. Share and use #BoycottSnickers!
@ColleenB123@erik_stocklin Thought this would make you guys laugh:
I'm on LinkedIn looking for better jobs a lot these days, and every time I see this ad I do a double take and think it's Miranda! It makes me smile, and the job search isn't quite so bad with her by my side 😁
