A jet of gas like that from a nozzle will entrain some of the ambient air that surrounds it. In this case, the ambient air would include the particles being blown around by other passengers' nozzles. So it's unlikely that anyone would cocooned in pure air from a nozzle.

Of course, if you added a hose connected to the nozzle and a hood of some kind, it might be a different story.
