    But, what are the regulations?

    See https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/pdf/Mask-Order-CDC_GMTF_01-29-21-p.pdf
    Also see the TSA stuff below.

    @Copper asked:

    Who is going to enforce them? And how?

    Per the CDC order linked above, TSA is the designated enforcer. The TSA has, in turn, published "Security Directives" and "Emergency Amendments" that expands on how the TSA interprets the masking order:

    https://www.tsa.gov/sd-and-ea

    Here is the only definition in all of that that I found:

    Mask means a material covering the nose and mouth of the wearer, excluding face shields.4

    Too lazy to look...

    Did his face covering meet those standards?

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      My wife’s wouldn’t work. Her aunt’s would probably cover a family of 4…

        Apparently there’d been a bit of a shaky landing on the way in, which had created some skid marks

        I was only joking

          https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/masks/mask-travel-guidance.html

          Excerpt below:

          ============
          The following are attributes of masks needed to fulfill the requirements of the Order. CDC will update this guidance as needed.

          • A properly worn mask completely covers the nose and mouth.
          • Cloth masks should be made with two or more layers of a breathable fabric that is tightly woven (i.e., fabrics that do not let light pass through when held up to a light source).
          • Mask should be secured to the head with ties, ear loops, or elastic bands that go behind the head. If gaiters are worn, they should have two layers of fabric or be folded to make two layers.
          • Mask should fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face.
          • Mask should be a solid piece of material without slits, exhalation valves, or punctures.

          The following attributes are additionally acceptable as long as masks meet the requirements above.

          • Masks can be either manufactured or homemade.
          • Masks can be reusable or disposable.
          • Masks can have inner filter pockets.
          • Clear masks or cloth masks with a clear plastic panel may be used to facilitate communication with people who are hearing impaired or others who need to see a speaker’s mouth to understand speech.
          • Medical masks and N-95 respirators fulfill the requirements of the Order.

          The following do not fulfill the requirements of the Order.

          • Masks worn in a way that does not cover both the mouth and nose
          • Face shields or goggles (face shields or goggles may be worn to supplement a mask that meets above required attributes)
          • Scarves, ski masks, balaclavas, or bandannas
          • Shirt or sweater collars (e.g., turtleneck collars) pulled up over the mouth and nose.
          • Masks made from loosely woven fabric or that are knitted, i.e., fabrics that let light pass through
          • Masks made from materials that are hard to breathe through (such as vinyl, plastic or leather)
          • Masks containing slits, exhalation valves, or punctures
          • Masks that do not fit properly (large gaps, too loose or too tight)

          ========

            Irrelevant. The TSA description as posted is relevant.

              Actually, this part could be relevant

              4 A properly worn mask completely covers the nose and mouth of the wearer. A mask should be secured to the head, including with ties or ear loops. A mask should fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face. Masks do not include face shields.

              In this case, if the panties completely covered his mouth and nose, he’s good to go.

                TSA’s publication refers to CDC.

                https://www.tsa.gov/sites/default/files/tsa-210819-6-4_4-ea-1546-21-01b.pdf page 2 footnote 4 refers to CDC‘s guidance, the one I excerpted earlier.

                  Mr. Jenne's mask probably didn't have the required two or more layers.

                  Lock him up.

                    We all know he was deliberately being a knobhead. He got exactly what he deserved, rules or not.

                      What Phibes said. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

                        Au contraire. Women's panties have two layers in the crotch, one end unsewn.
