Yes. At least an airlock of some sort. Otherwise, certain bacteria called acetobacter (which are basically everywhere) can infect the cider and break the alcohol down into vinegar. So keeping the flow of gas from the fermentation vessel "one-way" is very important. That said, you don't have to be fancy. Plastic airlocks and sized stoppers are only a couple of dollars at most. Some old timers will simply stretch a pin-pricked balloon over the mouth of the jug or carboy.

How can I make an airlock for my fermentation process?

To make an airlock for your fermentation process, you can use a simple setup with a fermentation vessel and a water-filled airlock. The airlock allows carbon dioxide to escape while preventing outside air from entering, which helps maintain a controlled fermentation environment. You can easily create an airlock by attaching a rubber stopper with a hole to the fermentation vessel and inserting a plastic or glass tube filled with water into the hole. This setup allows gas to bubble out without letting air in, ensuring a successful fermentation process.
