ORLANDO, Fla. — As more and more people start to fly again, airports and airlines are working to make people feel safe.
Delta Air Lines is one airline that has changed its passenger safety and clearing process during this pandemic.
“COVID-19 has certainly changed the way we look at things,” said Michael Kroll, general manager of Delta Air Lines at OIA.
Things like leaving middle seats on all flights open, using electrostatic sprayers to disinfect between flights and HEPA filtration systems are all intended to make passengers and employees feel safe.
