UPDATED MASK REGULATIONS

Initiated 02/01/21
The CDC issued an order requiring travelers to wear masks when entering the premises of a transportation hub, awaiting, boarding, disembarking, and for the duration of travel.

The CDC mask requirement applies to aviation facilities such as airports, FBOs and commercial aircraft operations, including part 135 operations. This Order, effective on February 1, 2021 at 11:59 pm (EST), must be followed by all passengers traveling into, within, or out of the United States as well as operators and operators of transportation hubs or any other area that provides transportation.

Aircraft and transportation hub operators must use best efforts to ensure travelers are wearing masks, including:

  • Allowing entry to or boarding only those wearing masks
  • Monitoring and seeking compliance for those on premises or onboard
  • Removing or disembarking, at earliest opportunity, any person who refuses to wear a mask
  • Providing notification of requirement by Federal law on digital, print, audio, and other platforms

Order exemptions are granted for:

  • Eating, drinking, or taking medications, for brief periods
  • Communicating with a person who is hearing impaired
  • Instances when wearing oxygen masks are needed due to loss of cabin pressure or other event affecting aircraft ventilation
  • Travelers who are unconscious (for reasons other than sleeping), incapacitated, unable to be awakened, or otherwise unable to move without assistance
  • Verifying a traveler’s identity such as through TSA screening or by a ticket or gate agent
  • Children under the age of 2 years
  • A person with a disability who can not safely wear a mask
  • A person for whom wearing a mask would pose a risk to workplace health, safety, or job duty as determined by relevant federal regulations or workplace safety guidelines

INTERNATIONAL POLICY

COVID rules for re-entry back into the US have been implemented.
 

UPDATED NOVEMBER 8, 2021

All non-immigrant, non-citizen air travelers 18 years old and over need to be FULLY VACCINATED and provide proof of their vaccination before boarding an airplane coming into the USA.

For children:
Children between the ages of 2 and 17 are required to take a pre-departure test.
– If a child is not fully vaccinated and traveling with a fully vaccinated adult, they can show proof of a negative viral test from a sample taken within ONE day before departure (consistent with the timeline for fully vaccinated adults).
– If an unvaccinated child is traveling alone or with unvaccinated adults, they will have to show proof of a negative viral test from a sample taken within one day of departure.

US citizens and Legal Permanent Residents who are NOT fully vaccinated need to provide proof of a negative COVID test taken within one (1) day of their flight coming to the USA.

US citizens and Legal Permanent Residents who ARE fully vaccinated also need to provide proof of a negative test taken within one day of their flight into the USA.

Passengers must show aircraft operator proof of negative result (NAAT/PCR or antigen)

– Attestation Forms need to be filled out by each passenger over the age of 2. Operators of private flights and GA aircraft must maintain records for 2 years. The attestation statement letter from each passenger is what needs to be kept and turned in for each passenger with the crew’s trip packets.

– Crew members will need to check the passenger’s COVID test results before each passenger will be allowed to board. A positive COVID test result will result in the passenger being denied boarding on our airplane.

– ONLY ACTIVE crew members are exempt. (see CDC Order below)
