Certain flight crew barred from U.S. entry after Trump order - IATA memo

Jan 28 (Reuters) - The ban on U.S. travel for passport-holders of seven Middle Eastern states applies to airlines' flight crew, the International Air Transport Association said in an email to carriers around the world on Saturday (Shenzhen: 002291.SZ - news) .

The email, seen by Reuters, said Friday's executive order from U.S. President Donald Trump caught airlines unprepared.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection briefed IATA in a Saturday afternoon conference call about the new rules, the email said, noting that passport-holders from states such as Iran, including cabin crew, will be barred entry to the United (Shenzhen: 000925.SZ - news) States.
