The Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and other government agencies are working in conjunction with airport companies to detect and stop the spread of the virus at Hiroshima Airport.
When coming to the airport, please observe and cooperate with the following.

Preventing the Spread of Infection in the Airport

• Airport staff are being encouraged to wear face masks to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
• The disinfection and cleaning of doorknobs and handrails in the passenger terminals (including on escalators) has been stepped up.
• Please keep sufficient space in front and behind when queuing at airline counters and passenger screening checkpoints.
• When at the airport, please wear a face mask even if you have no cold or flu symptoms, and practice normal etiquette if you cough or sneeze.

Request from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

1. Passengers with a fever or other symptoms are asked to refrain from boarding.
2. Hand washing and sanitizing as well as basic coughing and sneezing etiquette are fundamental to preventing infection. We ask that everyone observe these practices in the airport, on board aircraft and when using public transport, and also wear a face mask and refrain from conversation.
