A man walked off a flight from Halifax to St. John's before takeoff on Saturday after realizing almost everyone on the flight would need to self-isolate upon arrival, except him. He booked a flight to St. John's for July 4, one day after the Atlantic provinces opened their borders to each other. He assumed the flight would only have passengers from within the Atlantic region. When the Atlantic bubble opened Friday, people were excited to fly from Halifax to St. John's and vice versa with no mention of concerns over contracting the virus on the plane. If airlines offered flights only for Atlantic passengers, even if just once a week or bi-weekly, Power said he'd "happily" hop on.
