The International Air Transport Association's (IATA) latest passenger survey has found that most travellers are confident about the safety of air travel and support mask-wearing in the near term. However, a majority have been found to be frustrated with the "hassle factor" around Covid-19 protocols, including confusion and uncertainty about travel rules, testing requirement, and excessive test costs.
