Swine flu: Airlines cabin crew at risk

New Delhi: Regularly flying to affected countries and interacting with all the passengers as a part of their job is now translating into an occupational hazard for cabin crew. Every week on an average, 10 to 14 flights of 20 different airlines fly to the H1N1 affected countries and each flight carries a crew of at least 10 to 15 people. An average crew member flies two to three times a week. All airlines now have guidelines for their cabin crew.
