Airlines cabin crew to wear hazmat suits
Flight attendant uniforms have evolved considerably over the years, with styles adapting to reflect fashion trends, along with the changing world. However, it's unlikely any designer could have predicted its latest incarnation.
Qatar Airways is one of several airlines to introduce Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) suits for its cabin crew in light of the coronavirus pandemic. All flight attendants for Qatar's flag carrier will wear a hazmat suit over their uniforms, along with safety goggles, gloves and a mask during flights. In addition, passengers will be required to wear face coverings or masks on all its flights from May 25. The airline recommends that travelers bring their own "for fit and comfort purposes."
