the parents of natasha ednan—laperouse began campaigning after the 15—year—old died when she ate a sandwich containing sesame on a flight in 2016. they say some airlines have made strides in addressing the problem, but describe the response in this case as appalling. some airlines are actually really, really good. and, in fact, some airlines also have a no—nut policy — they have no nuts served of any sort on board in any of their food. and that is, you know, a clear statement that they obviously take, for example, nut allergies very seriously, and they show that by their actions and their policies. other airlines — i think this case is possibly one of the worst we've ever heard of — they're actually mistreating customers. a spokesman for sunexpress said, "we refrain from making these kinds of announcements as, like many other airlines, we cannot guarantee an allergen—free environment on our flights, nor prevent other passengers from bringing food items containing allergens on board." they say the captain of the flight decided it would be safest if the passengers�* group did not
