The public service site is not very explicit about the employees concerned: it reminds that the pass applies for interregional domestic flights, without however naming the categories of employees who are concerned.

The law also provides that the system applies to people working in transport "to or from" mainland France, Corsica or the French Overseas Territories.

The General Directorate of Civil Aviation (DGAC) confirms that the health pass applies to "flight personnel", that is to say to hostesses and stewards who welcome passengers on board planes and ensure the smooth running of the flight.

The regulations "are the same for the metropolis and the Overseas", continues the DGAC.

In the terminals, the waiters and waitresses who work in restaurants and cafes offering sales to consume on site must also present this health pass, completes the ADP group (Aéroports de Paris) to

.

The personnel in charge of passenger security checks or the personnel checking in passengers on board flights are not required to present it.

On the other hand, the doctors and nurses of the medical service and the emergency medial service of ADP are subject to the vaccination obligation, specifies the group, as are the carers of health establishments or nursing homes.
