Air France Implements More Safety Measures

As airlines around the world begin to gradually resume passenger services, Air France has introduced further safety measure to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. As from 11 May 2020, Air France will implement temperature checks on departure from all its flights. These systematic checks will be carried out with contactless infrared thermometers.

A body temperature below 38°C will be required to travel. Customers whose temperature is higher than this may be denied boarding and their reservation will be changed at no extra charge on a flight at a later date. On 11 May 2020, the wearing of masks will also be made compulsory on all flights operated by Air France, in application of the French directive on the wearing of masks on public transport.

Passengers will be notified of these new measures via all communication channels (e-mail, sms, websites) prior to their departure.
