Garuda Indonesia, the Indonesian national flag carrier, is planning to stop flight attendants from putting on face masks.

The national career is considering such a decision because passengers complained that they could not see the cabin crew members' smiles, Pulse reports.

Legit.ng gathers that the airline received numerous complaints from passengers who said the flights felt less hospitable.

Garuda CEO Irfan Setiaputra said: "Many Garuda customers have complained about the flight attendants wearing masks as [the passengers] cannot see whether or not the [flight attendants] are smiling or frowning."

Setiaputra, however, said the airline would consider plastic face shields.

The airline boss added: "With this, human interaction on the plane can still occur, although minimized, and everyone can feel safe but also comfortable."

Adeniyi shared a picture in which he was flanked by two roadside mechanics to show his humble beginning.
