Virginia Mandate Requires Face Coverings for All Passengers and Employees
to Help Reduce Transmission of COVID-19
In accordance with Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s mandate that protective face coverings be worn in indoor public spaces, face coverings will be required for everyone at Reagan National and Dulles International airports beginning Friday, May 29, 2020.
All passengers and visitors should wear face coverings inside the airports and on airport-provided transportation, with the exception of children under age 10 and people with medical conditions that prevent wearing a face covering.
Travelers wearing face coverings while going through TSA security screening may be asked to adjust them during the document-verification process. Individuals may also temporarily remove masks when stationary and at least 6 feet from others while engaging in activities such as eating and drinking. Most air carriers operating at Reagan National and Dulles International airports also are requiring their customers to wear face coverings throughout their journey, including at check-in, during boarding and while on their aircraft.
Face coverings need not be surgical masks or N-95 respirators, and they do not replace other critical health measures like frequent hand-washing and appropriate social distancing. Cloth masks and disposable masks, as well as hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes, are available for purchase at newsstands throughout both airports.
The health and safety of customers and workers is the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority’s top priority. Additional measures that have been implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic include:

2022 Charlotte Douglas International Airport Report of Achievement
Giving back to the community is central to what Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its operator, the City of Charlotte Aviation Department, is about, and last year was no different.
Throughout 2022, while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued our efforts to have a positive impact on the Charlotte community. Of particular note, we spent the year sharing stories of how Connections Don't Just Happen at the Terminal - from creating homeownership and employment opportunities to supporting economic growth through small-business development and offering outreach programs to help residents understand the Airport better.
This whitepaper highlights the construction projects, initiatives, programs and events that validate Charlotte Douglas as a premier airport.
