I suffer from a tree nut allergy, with sensitivity to peanuts. Like anyone who has an anaphylactic allergy, I always carry my epi-pen and benedryl everywhere I go. I always get nervous when flying at the thought of going into anaphylactic shock mid-air, and believe that something needs to be done to protect people with true food allergies. I think to start, serving peanuts should be banned. The degree of the allergy varies from person to person, but banning the actual product would help a lot of people right away. Food that might be shared on the same equipment or may contain nuts should still be allowed to respect the other side’s rights. I also think there should be peanut free seating on planes that are priority to people with allergies. That would eliminate the chance of my neighbor eating nuts. It’s a tough subject to debate. Maybe airlines should ask when purchasing a ticket as to whether or not they are traveling with someone who has an allergy. Based on answers, they can then plan for seating accordingly. Some baseball stadiums have peanut free sections, and airplanes should too!
