However, the CAA has asked passengers and crew members to wear face masks throughout the flight.

The CAA statement added that other Covid-19 SOPs issued by the authority will remain in place.

The aviation authority had imposed a ban on serving meals during all domestic flights in November last year due to the rising number of Covid-19 cases.
