Such a small change makes such a big difference for those with allergies.

Peanuts should not be served on airlines anymore. There are many other snack options which would not endanger the lives of many passengers. Peanut allergy is everywhere. It is time to modernize your approach airlines!

Too many people don't take this as a serious problem. I've known 3 people who have died because of negligence in taking this seriously.

The safety and inclusion of passengers, many of them children, should never be compromised due to a hidden disability beyond their control such as a life threatening food allergy. There are simple precautions that can be followed that can help eliminate risks rather than to discriminate and exclude.

There is nothing scarier than flying with a child that has a peanut allergy. Please help protect people who suffer from this condition. It is something I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.

I am moved by your story because it is like our own. Our son reacted to cheese powders from either gold fish crackers or pirate booty snacks the kids next to us were eating. We are Anaphylatic contact and airborne reactive to milk another top 8 allergy. While I support your petition allergies are More than just peanuts. All life threatening allergies should be accommodated to keep people safe. Awareness for food allergies and precautions necessary to keep all people safe can be a common goal.

A food allergy is a disability. The person has NO choice how their body responds to food. Serving peanuts on a flight isn't a requirement but a treat. There are many different options instead like fruit and/or veggies.

I sign for my daughter, who has a severe contact allergy to peanuts and tree nuts. Just a trace of the oil residue left on fingers that touch the seat trays, the arm rests, the bathroom doors, etc. could be enough to kill my child. Peanuts are NOT a necessity..... ban them, it's a relatively simple and pragmatic idea considering... wouldn't you agree?

I sign for my son Dawsen because he has tree nut allergies and I worry if we can ever safely fly with him.

No one should have to fear for their life on a plane because of an allergy. It's ludicrous that the general public would condone the legal bullying and discrimination of others for a usually short commute. You can live without peanuts!

People with life threatening allergies should be able to fly worry free without fear of anaphylaxis/ death. People can enjoy peanuts in their own homes, where it is not a life or death situation for someone else in an enclosed space with no access to medical care. Please protect the vulnerable!

Public places should be considerate of those with food allergies. Especially if it could be life or death to someone.

People with life threatening food allergies need to be protected and should be able to do the same things as other people without the threat of illness or death.

For the safety of my precious grandchildren and all the others with life threatening allergies, please pass legislation to make air travel safe for all of them!
