Yup...I was biting my tongue and thinking the same. Nothing mentioned about MD certification of this allergy so I guess it's a good faith thing
What is confusing there was a complaint filed with the FAA by a mom with a child that has a severe nut allergy and AA filed a response to that complaint earlier this year....but..in reading the confusing response i do not see that they agreed to early boarding for such a situation...
Here is the PDF response and the link to the response if the PDF link doesn't work:

link to PDF linkI don't see how this will prevent the person(s) in front/back/or same row from eating nuts during the flight....maybe an announcement by the flight crew?
