Dear readers,
Today we will highlight one of the most important topics how to safely travel to Europe during the pandemic in 2022 and what restrictions to expect when you are flying business class.
Who should be allowed to travel into the EU?
According to the recommendation, the following categories of persons should be allowed to travel into the EU under certain conditions:
- vaccinated and recovered persons
- essential travelers
- non-essential travellers from countries on the EU’s list
Vaccinated and recovered persons
Travelers should be allowed to enter the EU if they meet one of the following conditions:
- they have completed the full primary vaccination series of a COVID-19 vaccine approved by the EU or the World Health Organization (WHO) and fewer than 270 days have passed since the completion of that series
- they have received a booster of an EU or WHO approved COVID-19 vaccine
- they have recovered from COVID-19 within 180 days prior to travel
Member states should use the EU digital COVID certificate or third-country equivalent certificates as proof of vaccination and recovery.
For persons vaccinated with a WHO-approved vaccine, member states could also require a negative PCR test taken at the earliest 72 hours before departure and could apply additional measures such as quarantine or isolation.
A negative PCR test before departure could also be required for persons who have recovered from COVID-19, as well as for persons who have been vaccinated with an EU-approved vaccine but do not hold an EU or equivalent certificate.
Hope this information was helpful when you are booking tickets with us feel free to ask your travel agent regarding the current restrictions situation in the country you are traveling to.
