Omicron variant continues to grow positive numbers around the world, as governments impose new restrictions on travelers, airlines modify service to reduce the risk of infection.
Emirates, one of the airlines that has never stopped flying, has decided as a precautionary measure to reduce risk by closing bar access to business and first passengers aboard its A380s for the time being. The service had also been suspended in 202o at the outbreak Of the pandemic to be reactivated in October.
There is no official communication about this, but there are many travelers on social media and forums who are writing about having had this bitter surprise aboard the giants of the skies these days.
For the same reason, Emirates has also reportedly decided to suspend the pre-departure welcome service on board the entire fleet, not just the A380s. It is likely that other airlines, as they did in 2020, will also make similar decisions to reduce the chances of contagion aboard aircraft.
