Protocoles de vol libre COVID

WACAF AIR is working on the implementation of control protocols, through the use of medical diagnostic systems together with thecompany Canarifarm, to provide serological tests forantibodies COVID-19 to all employees and customers of the airline.

WACAF AIR plans to start operating its aircraft based in Gran Canaria from the month of July, and it wants to do so with the maximum guarantees, for which they are currently conducting tests on front-line workers and crews.

The rapid test has been approved under the public health emergency guide issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the American Air Authorities. The test determines if the antibodies produced to fight coronavirus infections are present, indicating that the individual has been exposed to the virus at some point.

"We are committed to testing 100% of our crews and offering travel kits to all customers who travel with us so that they have all the COVID-FREE guarantees".

From the company we believe that the expense is worth it, as the economy begins to reopen, the crews are ready to return to work, and clients deserve to fly with all the guarantees.

The new control protocol is only part of the WACAF AIR COVID-FREE response plan. The company has also implemented the use of masks and gloves for crew members while interacting with passengers, as well as implementing quarantine and disinfection procedures for aircraft. The interiors of the aircraft will be treated with ClearCabin, a product that creates an antimicrobial barrier, the use of filters HEPA with an efficiency of 99% and meticulous pre-flight protocols to assess the potential exposure of passengers, with the sole objective of protecting them.

Aircraft Preparation and Sanitation 

The pre-flight risk assessment will help implement improvements in the provision of services to our clients. We will make available to our clients the possibility of making pre-flight evaluations; from a passenger health questionnaire and temperature controls to eventually the "immunity passport".

Wacaf Air conscientiously structures its aircraft sanitation processes in three phases;

1. Ozonized Phase: According to the WHO, ozone is the most efficient disinfectant for all types of microorganisms. By using a state- of-the-art ozone generator , the sanitary control certification for the interior of the aircraft is acquired. According to the scientific biography, ozone is effective in eliminating bacteria, protozoa, nematodes, fungi, cell aggregates, spores, and coronaviruses. 
2. Spraying Phase: Spraying teams apply a hospital grade disinfectant, registered by the Environmental Protection Agency, to the interior surface of the aircraft by applying an aerosol, nebulizer or sprayer. According to Canarifarm, the 100% biodegradable disinfectant is non-corrosive and safe for surfaces in contact with the passenger and aircraft avionics equipment.
3. HEPA Filters: Replacement and maintenance of HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arrestors) air recirculation filters with the ability to capture viruses such as MERS (Coronavirus) with efficiency greater than 99.99%.
