KLM to make face masks compulsory for all passengers from 11 May 2020
Compulsory face masks on board
Since the Covid-19 outbreak began, KLM has introduced many measures around screening and hygiene to protect customers and KLM staff, on board and at airports. KLM's policy is based on national (RIVM) and international (WHO, IATA) guidelines, and complies with international law and regulations. In situations where social distancing cannot be guaranteed, the wearing of face masks will be recommended or made compulsory. Some destinations already require face masks to be worn on board flights.
Starting 11 May, and simultaneous with the restoration of the KLM network, masks will be compulsory on board and during boarding. Passengers are responsible for providing their own face masks.
In view of the changing nature of regulations and legislation, until further notice, face masks will remain compulsory until 31 August 2020.
Further details will be published in the course of this week on KLM.com and in passengers' pre-travel and check-in information.
