Face Masks: Where & When
DO I HAVE TO WEAR A MASK ON A PLANE?
Yes, wearing a face mask to travel is our new, albeit temporary, normal. Masks are federally required on domestic flights in the US and most airlines across the world have implemented similar requirements.
WHERE WILL I NEED TO WEAR A MASK?
Face mask requirements vary from city to city and airport to airport. It is important to check the requirements of not only your airline, but your destination, the airports you will transit, and with your accommodations to ensure you are adequately prepared.
WHAT KIND OF MASK DO I NEED?
While some airlines will be providing passengers health and safety kits onboard, the CDC advises the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others.
