does anyone know if Lufthansa still requires a mask?

Like in Restaurants. Standing = Masks, Sitting= No Masks.

So we now know the lower limits and upper limits of COVID. below 4 feet and above 10k feet there is No COVID.

It was posted elsewhere that this is an EU recommendation but that each member state makes its own rules, and that Germany’s masking requirements won’t be changing at this point.

For some reason UA EWR-CUN both directions announced “this is a mask required flight” and it was enforced.
