The number of people crossing checkpoints at airports around the world has risen to over 250,000 for seven days in a row, for the first time since March. As this number increases, airlines are forced to greater control to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

Ryanair will restore from July 1 40% normal flight schedule - the company authorities said on Friday. Irish lines will serve almost 1,000 flights a day, returning 90 percent destinations compared to pre-Covid-19 pandemic.

Restarting traffic at airports is done in stages. Lufthansa should resume international flights by mid-June, and then they are to do so, among others Swiss Air and British Airways.

All passengers and cabin crew will be required to wear face masks on board and in airport buildings where a temperature check will be carried out.
