AirAsia India on Tuesday said it is entering into a partnership with health technology start-up Mfine to provide pollution masks to its passengers taking flights to Delhi from Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai & Kolkata.
The initiative is being taken in view of high pollution levels in Delhi, the airline said, adding that PM 2.5 particles can "reach deep into the lungs".
PM 2.5 are tiny particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter.
"The campaign will commence on Nov 19, 2019, & end on Nov 29, 2019," it said in a statement.
In the winters, there is a dip in the minimum temperature that makes the air cold & heavy, making it easier for accumulation of pollutants close to the ground, the airline said.
"This tie up with Mfine is intended to help guests cope with changing environmental conditions in the city & stay healthy," it said.
