AKL-ICN masks still being enforced?

Hi everyone - was on NZ75 in March and CSD enforced masks despite a polite comment that Korean Govt had ended the need to have them on flights to/from Korea. I think asking twice would have meant some offloading so I didn't risk it.

I'm flying this route next week. Is it still masks? Have my parents and partner with me so would like to come prepared.

I still wonder sometimes how often the information is updated in the tablets for the ISM. I flew to HKG 3 weeks ago and was told before landing that masks were required inside the terminal - but Hong Kong's mask mandate ended on the 1st March.

Crew don't always have up to date local knowledge - you might end up flying a route a few times per month but then not fly it again for months.
