Once you board a plane, you may be in for quite a long flight, depending on your destination. To make yourself comfortable for the next however many hours, you might want to make use of some of the amenities being offered to you, including the complimentary pillows and blankets that are often left on your seat. However, you should think twice before getting cozy with these items. In a 2019 interview with Inside Edition, flight attendant Jamila Hardwick revealed that you should never use the blankets and pillows that are on a plane.

"Bring your own," she said. "These [blankets] get washed, but we're not sure how great they get washed, right. Same for the pillows."

The news outlet also reported that the airline has decided not to stop service for the five flights per week between Newark, New Jersey, and Johannesburg it currently operates.

Travelers from South Africa and the other countries who are barred from the U.S. will still face challenges, despite Delta's decision to continue its routes. Anyone who is not a U.S. citizen and has been in any of these countries within 14 days of their travel to the U.S. will be denied entry to the country, as of Nov. 29. To help these travelers, Delta is offering easier ways for them to change their flights.

Air travel has had an unprecedented two years. For much of the pandemic, people weren't flying the way that they had been, but those numbers have picked back up dramatically. Delta's CEO recently warned passengers that they should start expecting longer lines at airports, especially now that the U.S. has reopened its borders to millions of international visitors. Other travel experts have warned about higher flight prices to meet holiday demand. And now, Delta has announced that it's making new changes for December travelers. Read on to find out the latest from the airline.

The Omicron variant—which was first detected in South Africa—has shaken up the travel world in a very short amount of time. On Nov. 26, the U.S. announced that is restricting travel for non-U.S. citizens from South Africa and seven other African countries: Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Lesotho, Mozambique, Malawi, and Eswatini. Despite this, Delta Air Lines said it is not stopping its service to South Africa, Reuters reported.

The airline currently operates a direct flight between Atlanta, Georgia, and Johannesburg, South Africa, three times a week. "There are no planned adjustments to service at this time," Delta said about this route, per Reuters.

The resulting changes will also mean that Grand Junction, Colorado; Lincoln, Nebraska; and Cody, Wyoming, will no longer be served by the airline, ending flights to the cities as of Jan. 9.

Delta's request comes as Anthony Fauci, MD, chief COVID adviser to the White House, has publicly disclosed discussions within the CDC about possibly changing the guidelines for healthcare employees in light of the latest variant.

The letter, which was signed by multiple executives—including CEO Ed Bastian and Carlos Del Rio, MD, the airline's medical advisor—asked the CDC to reconsider the 10-day isolation guidelines it has in place that limit when someone who tests positive for COVID-19 can come back to work. Delta argues that the "guidance was developed in 2020 when the pandemic was in a different phase without effective vaccines and treatments." They also note that the Omicron variant appears to have a shorter incubation period and create less severe illness in vaccinated individuals, although the letter doesn't cite any specific studies or data.

In a letter to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky, MD, on Dec. 21, Delta executives warned that the airline's flights might be impacted by an expected shift in the pandemic's trajectory, travel news outlet The Points Guy reported. They expressed concern that the agency's current guidelines could leave the company without enough employees to keep operations running smoothly.

"With the rapid spread of the Omicron variant, the 10-day isolation window for those who are fully vaccinated may significantly impact our workforce and operations," the letter said. "Similar to healthcare, police, fire, and public transportation workforces, the Omicron surge may exacerbate shortages and create significant disruptions."
