The Cebu Pacific Air (CEB) announced on Tuesday it is now preparing for the resumption of commercial flight operations with new health protocols and intensified preventive measures following the air travel restrictions caused by the coronavirus disease outbreak.
All pilots and cabin crew will undergo rapid antibody tests before they are assigned to operate flights while.
All operating crew and ground staff are also required to wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) while on duty.
Cleaning and disinfection procedures have been ramped-up for all CEB facilities and equipment such as self check-in kiosks, check-in and bag drop counters and shuttle buses. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers will be provided for all passengers and staff at the airport and inside the aircraft.
“We are implementing additional procedures to assure our passengers and give them the confidence to travel again. Rolling out ‘contactless flights’ will minimize face-to-face contact between our ground staff and our passengers and observe physical distancing,” said CEB Vice President for Marketing and Customer Experience Candice Iyog.
