#2Considering I'm flying tomorrow, this is a reassuring read.
But cabins aren't the whole story. There's arguably more human interaction in the airport and terminals before the flight itself (check in, security, buy a coffee)
Quick search came up with this: https://www.forbes.com/sites/suzannerowankelleher/2020/07/20... which has some more cautionary numbers.

#3I CALL BS!! The likelihood of being infected by a COVID infectious passenger coughing in the seat next to you in a single-aisle airplane (no empty seat between you) is lower than if you sat/stood 6 feet apart in your office/home/shopping center (in both cases masks are worn).

A lot of the information here looks like it’s direct from airlines.
Obviously they have no benefit from touting the safety of air travel.
Right?
