Fly me to the Moon - your 3rd travel Megathread - read OP

I've just noticed that I've booked a holiday and will be arriving 13.5 days after my second dose, but the requirements are 14 days. Do you think this will be an issue? Could I just hang out in the destination airport for half a day to comply, or is that even necessary? Pfizer is only 7 days to be considered fully vaccinated but they don't seem to differentiate between the different ones.

Yes under 12 don’t require a test to enter Ireland from today.

That minister was talking through his hole, no quarantine required with a negative PCR for your teenagers to enter Ireland as per the DGC

One in ten cases? I'd like to see the actual data related to that. Very hard to believe one in ten cases of either vaccinated or PCR'd travellers were actually infected while abroad before travelling back.

Will you let us know if the vax cards can be used please. Thank you

It can. Just speaking to a good friend who's daughter is working with Ryanair. She's in T1 today - great atmosphere. The HSE cards, as expected, are being accepted as they are state issued proof of vaccination. That's all that is needed. Good to go!!!!!!

Thank you! Having a good ole airport Guinness now, it's a good pint too thankfully

I also just received my eu covid cert from rocdoc

That helpline is an absolute **** shambles. Mirror is reporting they have 30 staff in the call centre. 30.

Mother's been trying to get through since 8am, line is completely dead.

Jesus Christ.

2 hours and 9 minutes so far plus about 60% of my battery. Shambles

If youre talking about departure, it depends entirely on border security at the destination and has nothing to do with the airline or the Irish requirements that whoever is on that helpline will know about.

For return I would expect the HSE cards to work.

How would the emergency brake work if for example it was applied to the uk, but NI residents were travelling through dublin?

I understand that if travelling in to Ireland (from the UK) and not vaccinated, you need a negative PCR test. Can this be a home test or does it need to be privately? This is for a child between 12 and 17, travelling with vaccinated parent.

When you say checking EU cert, I assume you mean the Covid Cert (if one has it to provide) ?

When you say checking all locator forms for respective countries, for Spain, that's just the form that is completed on the SpTh site that results in a uploaded doc and a printout of a single page containing a unique QR code with your name/DOB/flight no etc ?

Am I missing something ?
