Researchers at Harvard say masks, air circulation & cleaning make air travel safe
Recent findings released by researchers from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health indicate air travel “is as safe or substantially safer” than routine activities like grocery shopping or eating out at restaurants — because airlines have implemented robust, multi-layered safety measures which can effectively reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19 onboard aircraft.

Recent studies have shown the risk of getting COVID-19 on an airplane remains low (even when seated next to someone) due to masks, enhanced cleaning and airflow systems.
