Travel Industry Welcomes US Plan to Lift Travel Restrictions

The US plans to ease its Covid-19 travel restrictions on foreign travellers from November. Under the new rules, fully vaccinated travellers will be able to fly into the US without quarantining if they provide proof of a negative Covid test and give contact information. The US had banned foreigners travelling to the country from certain regions, including Europe, early last year. The White House said the new policy would come into force in early November, without giving a specific date.
