3. Familiarise yourself with the health measures taken by the airport
We are providing hygiene equipment
You will find over 45 hand disinfection points at the airport. We have made hydroalcoholic gel and disinfectant sprays available to meet your needs in all areas of the airport. Our sanitary facilities are equipped with contact-free systems for washing and drying your hands.
Gel and masks are also available for sale in the airport vending machines.
We ask that you respect the social distancing rules
Les Barrier gestures and hygiene measures are essential to protect us all. The ground markings provided to maintain physical distance must be respected. These systems are in place throughout the airport.
We have opened an information and medical assistance desk
This desk can be found on the ground floor of the Terminal 2 building and is central to our health protection plan. It offers a wide range of services, including health information, temperature checks and medical teleconsultations.
We are ensuring increased disinfection of the terminals
Cleaning and disinfection of all high contact areas has been increased to ensure your safety: counters (information, check-in, boarding, border police, etc.), stairway ramps, escalators and travelators, lift buttons, door handles, passenger seats, terminal car park payment machines, machines at car park entrances/exits, touch screen terminals, security checkpoint trays and equipment, baggage trolleys, sanitary facilities and equipment, etc.

United States, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Panama
Passengers for whom there is a possibility of pre-departure test, will be required to present a negative RT-PCR SARS CoV2 test result less than 72 hours old at the time of boarding.

The results of the samples are communicated directly to each patient in a confidential manner. Aéroport de Lyon is not the recipient of these results.
