Ed Houston sipped an iced coffee at the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport on Wednesday as he waited for his flight to Seattle. The Bering Sea boat captain had been at sea for weeks and said he was surprised to see how few people had masks on at the airport.He was planning to wear his mask on his next flight. He said he’s vaccinated and not worried about catching COVID-19 himself, but wanted to make sure he didn’t inadvertently spread it.Houston was in the minority, though.

Hansmeyer wasn’t wearing a mask at the Anchorage airport on Wednesday as he waited for a bag after a bike trip to Hawaii. He said he did worry a bit, however, about some people not wearing masks on his last fight. Standing nearby was another traveler, Rain Van Den Berg, who wore a mask.
