TOEICセンサー

JALからのメールで以下の通知がありました。「ご搭乗に際してはマスク着用のご協力をお願いいたします。」の英訳が「Passengers will now be required to wear a face mask when traveling on JAL Group flights.」です。

Temporary Restrictions on Seat Assignments in Response to COVID-19

2．ご搭乗に際してのお願い

ご搭乗に際してはマスク着用のご協力をお願いいたします。

体調が優れないお客さま、発熱や強いだるさ（倦怠感）、息苦しさ（呼吸困難）等の症状があるお客さまはご搭乗をお控えいただきますようお願いいたします。

上記の症状があるお客さまのご搭乗につきましては、専門の医療機関へご相談をお願いいたします。

2. Boarding Process

Passengers will now be required to wear a face mask when traveling on JAL Group flights. While we understand the need for travel, any customer feeling under the weather is asked to refrain from boarding the flight. If any symptoms appear, consult your physician prior to taking the flight.

mandatoryかpreferableかJALの実際は分かりませんがTOEICのテスティングポイントとしては見逃せない点です。他の航空会社はどうなっているでしょうか。

United航空はフライトアテンダントはマスク着用は義務だけど搭乗客はadvisableだとしていますね。

(United)

In coordination with the Association of Flight Attendants (AFA) — we are the first major U.S. carrier to require that all flight attendants wear a face covering or mask to help protect themselves and customers on board our aircraft. Beginning in early May, we will make face masks available to our customers as well. This new initiative is in line with the most recent CDC recommendation that says wearing a cloth face covering is advisable when in public and when social distancing is difficult to maintain.

American航空はdoesn’t requireだけどencourageだとTOEIC的な表現をしてくれています。

(American)

American doesn’t require you to wear a face covering, but we encourage it. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website for recommendations on face coverings to bring with you and use during your trip.

Delta航空もお願いベースですね。

（Delta）

We ask you to help us support healthy flying for everyone by bringing your own mask from home and to review your local orders for any additional travel guidelines.

ショッピングモールのレポートですが、こちらもMasks, temperature checks encouraged for customers -- not mandatedのように表現しています。誤解を避けるためにも義務なのか、お願いベースなのかは、はっきりさせてもらいたいですね。
