Narrative:
Passengers blatantly refused to wear masks. Masks must be worn at all times; even while sleeping in flight. The only time the masks can be removed is while actively eating or drinking. This was the most non-compliant flight to date. There were passengers only covering their mouth and not their nose. There were many passengers who didn't have a mask on at all. When we would ask them to put a mask on they would roll their eyes; pretend to put it on and take it off as soon as we walked away. We all have families to go home to. This is not acceptable. Every other airline firmly enforces the mask policy.enforce the mask wearing policy strictly for all passengers and all airline crew; including mechanics; flight attendants; grounds ops personnel and pilots.
