The flight attendants union at Cathay Pacific Airways said it has asked the airline to let crew wear face masks on all flights over fears of catching the new coronavirus that has spread from China to other countries. The Cathay Pacific Airways Flight Attendants Union said it had received a “tremendous” amount of emails and messages from members concerned over catching the virus given they are exposed to over 300 passengers from numerous places on a single flight. So far, it said, the airline was not allowing cabin crew to wear masks except for Wuhan flights. Cathay said that as required by the Hong Kong health authorities, it was distributing health declaration forms and will be making face masks and antiseptic wipes available at the boarding gate to passengers traveling from Wuhan to Hong Kong. <br/>
