Fellow listers.... Has anyone on the list have flown on CX out of HKG in recent weeks and noticing anything unusual worn by the flight attendants inflight ? I am returning from a business trip last Saturday flying out of HKG to LAX to fly on the A340-600 and noticed that most of the flight attendants on this flight were wearing surgical masks for the most of the duration of the flight when they make their rounds in the aisles. I noticed that it did alarmed certain passengers on the flight. I never asked any one of them on why they were wearing masks, but I think it has to do with the SARS diseases that have been emerging in recent weeks from Asia and wearing the masks as a precaution. Has anyone also encountered this same phenomena I experienced on CX or on any other Asian carriers with flights originating from Asia ? If yes, please share your experiences in the forum or off-list.
