Body temperature checks on passenger

To prevent the spread of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), incoming passengers and Royal Brunei Airlines cabin crew have their body temperatures checked at the Brunei International Airport. A health officer said body temperature checks through the ears are being carried-out until the last flight at night.

Those who already have their body temperature checked are issued with a note to be surrendered to the immigration staff prior to the chopping of their passports.

Customs officers at the arrival hall are now seen wearing masks. So too are health staff who check incoming passengers' temperature. The Bulletin also found out some incoming passengers are wearing masks. Foreigners who welcomed their families and friends at the arrival hall were also seen wearing masks.
