  5. Something should be done to help the affected countries. Banning or suspending won't solve the crisis.

  16. As a cabin attendant I believe its the best decision taken by these airlines for the safety of not only the crew but everyone. Sometimes I just wonder what would have happened if Air Nigeria was still operating.? I am so guilty of hugging my passengers.
