CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

Anyone who has recently experienced symptoms of acute respiratory illness may not enter a FlightSafety facility unless, within the preceding 24 hours, they are:

• Asymptomatic of COVID-19, and
• Not using fever-reducing or other symptom-reducing medicines such as cough suppressants, and
• Fever free (Temperature under 100.4° F [37.8° C])

Based on recent guidance from the CDC, U.S.-based fully vaccinated individuals may now resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing unless otherwise required by local statute or health order.

While in the facility, to remain consistent with CDC recommendations, everyone shall:

• Exercise social distances practices to the extent possible
• Depart the facility if feeling unwell
• Utilize hand sanitation best practices to the maximum extent

• Disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizers are provided in high traffic areas such as customer support counters, cafeterias, training areas and bathrooms, etc. Use of disinfecting wipes is encouraged prior to coming in contact with surfaces such as doorknobs, keyboards, remote controls and desks.
• Sanitization of break rooms, food service areas, coffee stations and other similar locations is completed every hour.
• Single use and reusable face masks, and disposable non-latex gloves are available at our facilities.
• All contact surfaces in the flight training devices are cleaned daily using an alcohol-based cleaning agent known to be effective against COVID-19. In addition, the surfaces are wiped prior to each training event and during crew seat changes.
• The interiors of our flight simulators and other high-touch surfaces undergo long-lasting biocide and viricide treatments, which are refreshed every 90 days.
• Continuously self-cleaning door handle wraps have been installed at all our facilities, in high traffic areas. These new generation nanospectic wraps use light activated crystals to oxidize and destroy pathogens without the use of harsh chemicals.

To reduce the spread of new variants of COVID-19, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) requires all passengers traveling to the United States from a foreign country to get tested for COVID-19 within 3 days prior to departure and to provide proof of a negative result or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 to the airline before boarding. This order will be effective beginning January 26, 2021. For additional information on testing requirements, please visit cdc.gov.

In accordance with government directives, foreign nationals who have been physically present in Brazil, China, Iran, Ireland, South Africa, United Kingdom or the Schengen Area of Europe within 14 days prior to attempting entry to the United States will be required to obtain a National Interest Exception and additionally comply with new COVID-19 testing requirements.​​

Here are just a few of the comments we have received from customers who have recently trained at one of our Learning Centers:
