Masks will no longer have to be worn on EU flights and in airports from next Monday, new guidance says.
Face masks will no longer have to be worn on flights and in airports in EU countries from next Monday, according to new official guidance.
"From next week, face masks will no longer need to be mandatory in air travel in all cases, broadly aligning with the changing requirements of national authorities across Europe for public transport," EASA executive director Patrick Ky said. ECDC director Andrea Ammon said that although the wearing of masks would no longer be compulsory, it was important to remember that "together with physical distancing and good hand hygiene, it is one of the best methods of reducing transmission".Both EU agencies said that on flights arriving at or departing from places where masks still had to be worn on public transport, airlines should encourage passengers to wear them.
Some airlines flying to and from the UK have already removed mask requirements where destinations don't require it.
