Covid-19: The United States will reopen its borders in early November to fully vaccinated travelers

0

The United States will allow all travelers from abroad to enter from "early November" on condition that they are fully vaccinated against Covid-19, the White House announced on Monday.

From November 1, 2021, travelers will therefore be able to travel to the United States but will, in addition to presenting proof of vaccination against Covid, be tested in the three days preceding their trip and wear a mask.

“We welcome the announcement by the United States that fully vaccinated European travelers will soon be able to travel to the United States again. This is a long overdue measure for separated friends and families, and good news for businesses, ”the European Commission said on Twitter.

The Franco-Dutch group Air France-KLM judged this news "formidable" while transatlantic flights represent a substantial part of its revenues.

The federations of the sector Airlines for Europe and Airlines for America also “applauded” the announcement.

Anyone wishing to fly to the United States will need to prove that they have been fully vaccinated. French people aged 2 or over traveling to the United States must present the result of a negative Covid-19 screening test carried out in the three calendar days preceding the flight upon boarding. These measures apply even in the event of simple transit through American territory.

Finally, travelers will need to provide their phone number and email address to ensure contact follow-up.
