Airbus' PaxCASE concept offers a solution for isolating an airplane passenger displaying Covid-19 symptoms by sealing them off in a pop-up bubble.
(CNN) — As more airplanes return to the skies, airports and airlines continue to enforce measures designed to keep passengers as safe as possible while Covid-19 remains a problem. But even though face masks and temperature checks are commonplace -- as are destination requirements for proof of vaccination or negative test -- there's still a possibility that a passenger could develop Covid symptoms mid-flight. On a packed airplane, it can be tricky to actually isolate a symptomatic traveler in line with the two-meter distance recommended by global aviation body IATA and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.More Related News
