The ADA requires equal access but doesn't require better access. You can not impinge on others rights to gain your rights. The airline can be required to not serve peanut products and can give you access to the plane earlier to clean your seat, but they can not impinge on the rights of others to consume peanut products. As others have stated on many occasions, the other passengers are only informed of the peanut allergy of a fellow passenger once they have unpacked and are securely strapped in their seat and at that point the peanut allergy is your problem. If we are on a lengthy flight and no food is served other than a paltry bags of pretzel then I am feeding my kid the packed PB&J. If you are THAT scared of peanuts then have the right to ask the flight attendant to make an announcement that if any passenger needs a non-peanut snack that you would gladly pay for their "buy on board" sandwich for them since they weren't give 24 hours notice to pack a peanut free snack.
