Travel Restrictions Worldwide

Updated December 18, 2020

O.K., so we officially have two vaccines available to us. But it will take sometime before most people are vaccinated. Also, once vaccinated, you still have to wear your mask and social distance until it’s figured out how it all works. I interviewed Dr. Yvette McQueen and she explains it all.

 

Be sure to check with your airline, airport and your destination before venturing out on a trip.

You can always check the flight schedules as well to the right.

Airports With COVID-19 Testing Facilities

There are more and more airports offering testing reports AFAR magazine. Early on in this pandemic, the Caribbean islands were asking for this and it was not available. So I’m glad to see that it’s now happening. Here are some of the airports that already have testing:

  • Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX (DFW)
  • Frankfurt, Germany (FRA)
  • Hong Kong (HKG)
  • Kansai, Japan (KIX)

IATA Travel Restrictions

IATA (International Air Transport Association) have taken the travel restrictions data and created a map.

If you want to see the detailed restriction for each country click on the country once you go to https://www.iatatravelcentre.com/international-travel-document-news/1580226297.htm.

This is part of the data that airlines use when they check you in and give you permission to travel or not.

Before you travel anywhere internationally you should be looking at this data first as well as the travel restrictions for the country and city from which you are departing.

For the U.S. those restrictions are located at https://travel.state.gov; each country have a similar page.

 

U.S. States Travel Restrictions

Here are some U.S. states that have some sort of travel restrictions. Always check first as the restrictions will change from time to time:
