EasyJet to get rid of masks on many routes
EasyJet has followed in the footsteps of BA, Virgin, and Jet2 by announcing that they will no longer require masks on board some flights.
From 27 March neither crew nor passengers will need to wear a mask except when flying to and from some destinations where mask rules remain in place.
The airline clarified the routes where masks do not need to be worn.
“This means that on UK domestic flights including Jersey, but excluding routes to and from Scotland, plus flights between the UK and Denmark, Gibraltar, Iceland and Hungary, customers and crew will no longer be required to wear masks.”
EasyJet went on to say
“We aim to progressively remove the requirement on other international routes as and when both ends of the route has no legal requirement.
“As a pan-European airline operating between over 30 countries, we must continue to ensure that we and our customers follow the legal requirements of all the countries we fly to.”
