The European Union (EU) has announced that it will relax the face masks policy. However, the mask law is still in place in Spain and Italy. Spain's government stated that the restriction will not likely alter in the next few days or weeks.
In a joint statement, the two bodies said, “Wearing face masks at airports and inflight should be aligned with national measures on wearing masks in public transport and transport hubs.”
According to the report, the Italian
government confirmed on Friday that its stringent mask-wearing regulations
continue to be in effect, including on flights into and out of the
nation.
On Wednesday, Spain's minister of
health, Carolina Darias, stated, "Europe says
that the mask on flights must be aligned with national regulations
and in Spain, we only recently decided that in this context it remains
mandatory.”
Iberia, the national airline of
Spain, indicated that it would continue to require masks in the coming weeks to safety recommendations from the Spanish aviation and health
ministries. On April 20, Spain ended the requirement to wear a mask indoors,
except in care facilities, hospitals, and public transportation.
According to Ryanair's announcement, face masks won't be required on the majority of its itineraries starting today. On flights to and from 14 particular nations, masks must nevertheless be worn. These are a few top ten vacation spots for Britons, such as Spain and France. Austria, Cyprus, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey are among the nations where masks are still required.
