can’t you request a no peanut flight, or at least make the airlines aware that your nut allergy is That bad before you buy the tickets?
You really can’t stop people from buying nuts at the news stand and eating them...i do that myself when i’ve flown.

Yes.

We have had all peanut snacks removed from the flights - bagged peanuts, trail mix, etc.,... as well as announcements made.

This guy should have been held accountable. There are varying levels, if you will, of peanut allergies. Some people were allergic and just couldn’t eat them but some couldn’t even be in the vicinity of peanuts.

Yeah but if the request is made not to eat them on a flight, you can be a decent human being and not eat them. Its really not that difficult.

You can stop someone from eating nuts. Physically take them away. An order from a flight attendant is a lawful order. Refusal is a Federal offence. Medical reasons would absolutely hold up in court if a flight attendant told not asked a passenger to cease an activity any activity putting a passenger or the plane in danger. There is no freedom on a plane you signed that away with your contract of c carriage. This is the brits they don’t have the same FAA laws the USA does. I am 6 foot 250 plus athletic and a former small teams service member of this was my kid I would have taken those nuts and if the person resisted could beat them to death with my bare hands wouldn’t be the first time in hand to hand to the death. Sadly for the girl it was her mum not her huge dad to sort that out. Inconsiderate bastard should have been knock silly for it.

Oh, I could - but they'd arrest me as soon as we landed.

Still, a Life Sentence at my age doesn't mean much.

um, why did these things never happen years ago when they actually served nuts to passengers?

The obvious solution would be to offer an alternative snack.

Even after the crew asks you not to while you're boarding?
