Asked about social distancing on Tui’s half-year financial results call this morning, Fritz Joussen said the company would be taking measures and had been consulting with experts about what would be necessary.
“We can’t totally avoid any possibility of infection, but we can mitigate against it,” he said.
“In the aircraft itself – a face mask is very sensible. Our air conditioning filters are comparable to hospital filters.
All indications from the experts say the probability of catching infection in the aircraft is not very high. We also have airflow in the system.”
