On May 1st, according to reports from multiple domestic media outlets, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) has sent a telegram to airlines, announcing the cancellation of the requirement for cabin crew to wear masks starting from May 6th.
Meanwhile, Hainan Airlines has announced that flight attendants will fully implement the cancellation of mask-wearing requirements on flights departing after midnight on May 6, 2024.
An article on the "LeHua HU Cabin Service" public account under Hainan Airlines stated that starting from May 6th, flight attendants can gracefully remove the constraints of wearing masks while soaring in the sky, allowing those long-hidden brilliant smiles to shine brightly in the sky at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
Removing masks is something we have all been looking forward to – a moment of free breathing and unrestricted communication. We are ready to greet every unexpected beauty in every corner of the world with the brightest smiles.
It is worth noting that when passengers show symptoms of infectious diseases such as fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat, or when changing aircraft with HEPA filters, it is recommended to wear disposable medical masks or surgical masks.
