Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer from Baroness Vere of Norbiton on 14 May (HL4070), what progress they have made on working with the aviation sector to develop an approach for social distancing on flights (1) within, (2) arriving in, or (3) leaving the UK.

On 12 May, the Government published transport guidance for operators and passengers on travelling safely. This addresses issues relating to social distancing. On 11 June we published guidance specific to the aviation sector, which provides advice on measures to help mitigate the risk of transmission of Covid-19.
