Summary: Airlines for America, representing major U.S. airlines, supports the CDC's Amended Order to address Ebola risks but requests more specific, risk-informed limitations on the scope of travel restrictions. They advocate for narrowing the geographic scope of the order, exempting certain crew members, and expanding the list of designated arrival airports to improve operational flexibility.
Airlines for America (“A4A”), on behalf of its members, offers the following comments regarding the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s notice and request for comment, “Notice of an Amended Order Under Sections 362 and 365 of the Public Health Service Act Suspending Introduction of Certain Persons From Countries Where a Communicable Disease Exists”.
