April 27, 2021 – A Republican senator in Alaska was banned from Alaska Airlines for refusing to comply with face mask rules.
“We have informed Senator Lora Reinbold that she is not allowed to fly with us because she continues to refuse to follow employee instructions regarding the current mask policy,” spokesman Tim Thompson told the Anchorage Daily News on Saturday, CBS News reported.
The ban is effective immediately and its length will be determined by review, Thompson said.
Reinbold, an Eagle River Republican who has repeatedly objected to Alaska Airline’s mask policy, said she was not notified of the ban and hopes to fly with the airline in the near future, CBS News reported.
