Air Canada: The Montreal-based carrier has been requiring passengers to don face coverings since April 20 in accordance with an order by that country's transport minister.  Who has to wear a mask?  "Customers on all itineraries" are required to wear them, the Air Canada policy says.  "This requirement will apply to customers at various points in Canadian airports, during the boarding process and during flight as may be directed by Air Canada staff where social distancing is not possible."  Where do you have to wear a mask? At "check-in, at time of boarding, and upon entering the aircraft where social distancing is not possible," the Air Canada website says. "Customers will be asked to lower their masks to facilitate full ID checks as required by Canadian regulations at check-in. While on board, customers are further required to wear their face covering at all times except to eat and drink or, in case of an inflight emergency should the oxygen masks be deployed, or when, in the judgement of the crew, appropriate physical distancing can be maintained."  Do you have to bring your own mask? Yes. "Customers must bring their own face coverings which will be verified prior to boarding all Air Canada flights and prior to security screening at Canadian airports," the carrier said. It expressly said it will not provide them.    Usp News Coronavirus A Usa Az
