All passengers are required to wear face masks

In response to COVID-19, we have implemented a number of measures to safeguard the wellbeing of our passengers and crew. While the risk of transmission from one passenger to another onboard remains very low, we're introducing an additional temporary requirement for added protection: that all passengers wear face masks in situations where physical distancing cannot be maintained.

From 15 May 2020, passengers are required to wear face masks in situations where they cannot maintain a physical distance of 2 metres from others, or as directed by our airline employees. This includes:

· during check-in;

· in our lounges;

· during boarding;

· in the aircraft cabin; and

· during disembarkation.

It's also strongly recommended that face masks are used in high-traffic areas such as security lines and baggage collection areas. Passengers who are unable to tolerate a face mask, including young children, are exempt from this requirement.

We kindly ask that you bring your own appropriate face mask to wear throughout your journey -both cloth and disposable masks are suitable. For a sustainable option, please visit the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention to learn more about cloth face masks and how to make one at home.

This face mask requirement will remain mandatory until further notice.

所有乘客必須佩戴口罩

因應新型冠狀病毒疫情,我們採取了一系列保障乘客及機組人員身心安泰的措施。即使在航班上人傳人的風險較低,我們仍推出額外的臨時措施以加強保障:在無法保持適當人與人距離的情況下,所有乘客均須戴上口罩。

由2020年5月15日起,如你乘搭我們的航班,並且在無法與他人保持2米距離或在按照我們職員的指示下,必須佩戴口罩。適用範圍包括:

· 辦理登機手續

· 在我們的貴賓室

· 登機期間

· 在航班上

· 落機期間

我們強烈建議乘客在人流多的區域(例如等候安檢和行李領取區)佩戴口罩。 未能忍受佩戴口罩的乘客(包括幼童)可獲免除此要求。

我們懇請你在旅途上自備合適的口罩(布質及拋棄式口罩皆可)。你亦可查看美國疾病管制與預防中心網頁,了解更多布口罩及如何在家製作口罩的資訊。

佩戴口罩為強制措施,直至另行通知。
