Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines is now requiring all passengers to wear a mask or face covering when flying.

As WABE’s Maria White Tillman reports, the airline says the move was made to add an extra layer of protection to customers and employees during the coronavirus pandemic.

Passengers on Delta flights will have to wear a mask or scarf across all Delta touchpoints including check-in, Delta Sky Clubs and boarding gates.
