Sean Duffy and RFK Jr Launch ‘Make Travel Family Friendly Again’ Campaign at Reagan National Airport
On December 8, at Reagan National Airport, Sean Duffy and RFK Jr launched the 'Make Travel Family Friendly Again' campaign aimed at transforming airports into wellness spaces. The event featured Duffy completing 10 pull-ups and RFK Jr doing 20, alongside influencer Paul Saladino, who helped develop the wellness concept including mini workouts with treadmills and bikes.
The campaign, supported by $1 billion in grants, also touched on expanding breastfeeding spaces in airports to better accommodate traveling families. Duffy's civility initiative, titled 'The Golden Age of Travel Starts with You,' encourages restoring courtesy and class in air travel, with a call for travelers to dress up even for basic-economy flights.
However, the article notes broader transportation challenges such as aging infrastructure requiring major bridge repairs, limited rail investment, and a chronic shortage of air traffic controllers, raising questions about prioritizing wellness spaces over these pressing issues.
