新冠肺炎疫情給全球航空業(yè)造成沉重打擊。在多國疫情限制措施有所放松之際，國際民用航空組織對如何幫助乘客和工作人員預(yù)防感染提出了新的建議，包括限制乘客在飛機上使用廁所等。

Air passengers should have restricted access to toilets on flights as part of wide-ranging coronavirus safety recommendations, a UN agency has said.

聯(lián)合國機構(gòu)國際民用航空組織表示，應(yīng)該限制乘客在飛機上使用廁所，這是一份覆蓋面很廣的預(yù)防新冠病毒安全建議提到的。

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) guidelines also include limiting or suspending food and drink services on short-haul flights.

國際民用航空組織的指南還包括限制或暫停短途航班上的食品和飲料服務(wù)。

The new guidelines are designed to protect air passengers and workers from the Covid-19 virus as lockdown eases.

Airlines could see revenues plunge ￡314bn in 2020, the ICAO added.

國際民用航空組織補充稱，航空公司今年的收入可能會減少3140億英鎊（約合人民幣27937億元）。

The aviation industry has been struggling as lockdown measures around the world have limited flights and passenger numbers.

由于世界各地的封鎖措施限制了航班和乘客數(shù)量，航空業(yè)一直在苦苦掙扎。

As those travel restrictions begin to ease, the ICAO has issued guidelines for governments, with the aim of airlines and airports having a unified response when trying to keep passengers and staff safe from coronavirus.

隨著這些旅行限制開始放松，國際民用航空組織向各國政府發(fā)布了指導(dǎo)方針，目的是讓航空公司和機場在努力保護乘客和工作人員免受新冠病毒感染時做出一致反應(yīng)。

The ICAO stopped short of saying that passengers must be socially-distanced on planes, but it did say they should be seated separately "when occupancy allows it".

國際民用航空組織沒有指出乘客必須在飛機上保持社交距離，但明確表示，“當(dāng)入座率允許時”，乘客應(yīng)該分開坐。

Passengers should travel as lightly as possible, with small hand luggage stowed under their seat. Newspapers and magazines should be removed, and duty free sales should be temporarily limited, the UN's civil aviation body said.

乘客應(yīng)該盡量輕裝出行，把小的手提行李放在座位下面。該機構(gòu)表示，應(yīng)撤下機上的報紙和雜志，并暫時限制免稅銷售。

Short-haul food and drinks services should be limited or suspended, or be sold in sealed, pre-packaged containers.

應(yīng)限制或暫停短途航班的食品和飲料服務(wù)，或?qū)⑹称凤嬃厦芊庠陬A(yù)先包裝的容器中出售。

Access to toilets should also be restricted, the ICAO said. Where possible, one toilet should be set aside for use by cabin crew, and passengers should use a designated lavatory based on which seat they have.

國際民用航空組織表示，廁所的使用也應(yīng)該受到限制。如有可能，應(yīng)留出一間廁所供機組人員使用，乘客應(yīng)根據(jù)自己的座位使用指定的廁所。

In general, face masks should be worn in line with public health guidelines, and social distancing should be made possible where it is feasible, the UN body said.

該機構(gòu)表示，總的來說，應(yīng)按照公共衛(wèi)生準(zhǔn)則戴口罩，在可行的情況下，應(yīng)盡可能保持社交距離。

Areas should be routinely cleaned, and passengers should be checked for signs of coronavirus, by screening temperatures, for example. Contact tracing methods should also be explored.

區(qū)域應(yīng)定期清潔，并應(yīng)通過篩查體溫等措施檢查乘客是否有感染新冠病毒的跡象，還應(yīng)探索使用接觸者追蹤方法。

At airports, staff should have adequate personal protective equipment, which "could include gloves, medical masks, goggles or a face shield, and gowns or aprons," the guidelines said.

指南提出，在機場，工作人員應(yīng)該有足夠的個人防護用品，“包括手套、醫(yī)用口罩、護目鏡或面罩，以及防護衣?！?/p>

Passengers should be encouraged to check-in before getting to the airport, and to use mobile boarding passes.

應(yīng)鼓勵乘客在到達機場前辦理登機手續(xù)，并使用電子登機牌。

Airports should also use contactless technology, including facial and iris scanning, for "self-service bag drops, various queue access, boarding gates and retail and duty-free outlets", the guidelines say.

該指導(dǎo)方針稱，機場還應(yīng)使用非接觸式技術(shù)，包括面部和虹膜掃描，應(yīng)用于“自助托運行李、各種排隊通道、登機門、零售和免稅商店”。

"This will eliminate or greatly reduce the need for contact with travel documents between staff and passengers," the UN agency added.

該機構(gòu)補充說：“這將避免或大大減少工作人員和乘客之間接觸旅行證件的需要。”

The recommendations are extensive and detailed - a blueprint for aviation in the Covid-19 era; and one fact stands out. Flying, for a while at least, is not going to be a whole lot of fun.

這份廣泛而詳細的建議是新冠疫情時代航空業(yè)的總體指導(dǎo)方針。有一點非常明確：飛行，至少在一段時間內(nèi)，不再充滿樂趣。

From the moment you arrive at the terminal building, armed with your pre-printed boarding pass and luggage tags, human contact will be limited, social distancing the norm. Masks will be obligatory, and supplies of hand sanitiser everywhere.

從你拿著預(yù)先打印好的登機牌和行李標(biāo)簽到達航站樓的那一刻起，人與人之間的接觸就會受到限制，保持社交距離成為常規(guī)。人們必須戴口罩，到處都有洗手液。

It insists the new measures should be temporary.

該機構(gòu)堅持認為新措施應(yīng)該是暫時的。
