    Mask Mandates on Aircraft?

    I’m flying Qatar to Rome via Doha in a couple of weeks. Anyone done the Sydney to Doha route recently and are masks still required. I’m assuming the Doha/Rome flight will be mask free due to Italian mask mandates being lifted. We are in QSuites where I’ve read no mask needed ?

    Child Safety Harness

    Thanks so much for your reply. I’ve also seen a video on YouTube showing how the CARES harness is set up. What I’m interested in is how that will impact the person seated behind. The strap around the seat will cover their seat back screen won’t it ? Cheers
