are interested to serve as a Trip Chair or Trip Chair Assistant. Qualified applicants will receive a trip reimbursement of $1,300 as a
Trip Chair or $300 as a Trip Chair Assistant.
We cannot run a

TSA issues NEW COVID-19 Rules
for Air Travel
In a press release on January
31, 2021 pursuant to an Executive Order, the TSA latest change is
requiring all passengers over the age of 2 to wear face masks. There are penalties
for those failing to comply - they will be prevented from entering the
screening area, and “the TSA will recommend a fine ranging from $250 for the
first offense up to $1,500 for repeat offenders.” The order became effective February 2, 2021 through at least
May 11, 2021. This follows the issue of a Federal Register notice
(PDF) by the CDC effective February 1, 2021 regarding
"wearing of face masks while on conveyances and at transportation
hubs."
