Save the date: U.S. reopening

In long-awaited news, the U.S. has announced its plan to reopen to fully vaccinated foreign travellers on 8 November.

The U.S. border has been closed since March 2020 in response to the pandemic. So, for those hoping to reunite with family and friends for Thanksgiving, absorb the festive magic of New York, or enjoy the ski season in the Rocky Mountains, it’s a welcome update. 

Thinking about chartering a jet to the U.S? Here’s what you need to know before you fly:

• You must be fully vaccinated with an FDA approved/authorised vaccine or a WHO EUL approved single-dose vaccine. 
• Proof of vaccination is required before boarding. 
• Fully vaccinated travellers must show a negative viral test result taken within 72 hours of travel to the U.S. 
• Children under 18 are exempt from the vaccination requirement.
