  • If there are suspected cases of symptomatic passengers at the exit screening, their travel should be delayed and advised for further evaluation and treatment.  

Measures to follow while onboard:

  • If it happens that a passenger is displaying symptoms, the seating location should be left idle and those around should be considered for a follow up upon arrival. 

  • Cabin crew staff are expected to advise ground-based medical service providers through the control tower if there are suspected cases on the aircraft.
