Currently both medical facilities and Alaska Airlines require a mask or face covering to be worn in their facilities.

If you become sick or experience symptoms, you should mask and immediately begin to strict socially distance. Call a local medical provider to schedule a COVID 19 test.

If someone in your household or on your vessel becomes COVID positive, that person must immediately isolate from the rest of the household or the entire household/crew must immediately self-quarantine with the sick individual. If the household/crew are considered close contacts additional instructions may be given by contact tracing. All isolation and quarantine instructions should followed to completion.
