Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd. said any aircrew members who have stayed in Frankfurt this month will need to undergo a 21-day quarantine in a government facility after three pilots on cargo flights from the German financial hub were confirmed Covid cases.
As a precautionary measure, Cathay has immediately changed hotel for aircrew staying in Frankfurt and will suspend layovers in the German city for cargo crew, it said in a statement Monday. The airline, the world’s third-biggest airfreight commercial carrier, is also requiring crew members take daily Covid tests.
