Spring holiday destinations without Covid testing.
Wednesday, March 16, 2022
In addition to the UK scrapping all Covid entry requirements, various other countries have also relaxed their travel rules in time for spring.
With many European hotspots removing all pre-travel tests requirements for fully vaccinated passengers, travel is easier than ever. A few further-flung destinations have also removed all Covid-relation restrictions altogether.
Here are the countries making Easter holidays easy for you.
France.
With pre-travel tests for vaccinated passengers dropped on February 12th, double-jabbed travellers simply need to show proof of two vaccine doses on entry and complete a 'sworn statement' health form.
