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

No they don't.

Ireland is the only one I know of.

France and Spain definitely don't

Came in mid December.

if your trip is 2 nights, you might be able to wrangle it so you do your PCR test before you go and have the results before you board the plane.

it makes no sense but it’s allowed. You have the costs of the tests but you know you will be able to come home.

It was checked before boarding along with vaccine cert

Has anyone who travelled over the past week or two to Austria know what they have accepted as proof of booster jab?

Has anyone been to Austria recently? For proof of booster, would a letter from your GP be enough? As far as I know, the EU Covid pass has not been updated yet to take account of boosters.

Had a few trips away in 2021 which were just what the doctor ordered (and in no way riskier than a trip to Bundoran, Kilkenny or Killarney).

The additional testing requirement is a balls pure and simple. Pointless to boot.

Most EU countries have not introduced this rule but a few have. Once continental Europe (with this handful of countries) get past the Omicron wave then I expect the testing requirement will be dropped. We'll probably be last but I would be surprised if it was still in place come the end of February.

Of course I hope our politicians realise the futility of the rule and it's gone sooner

No nothing. Wasnt asked yesterday for anything but boarding pass and passport.

We have done 15 trips abroad last year, including two during Christmas/New Years period, fully vaccinated plus done a countless number of tests - never got Covid. We flew to New York for Christmas, came back on the 30th and flew to Krakow on 31st, came back yesterday. Obviously, we have done our pre/post departure tests - all negative.

From reading the news, Ireland was beating their own records in daily Covid cases and I can't help the feeling that if we had stayed here, we would have gotten it.

Friends flew back to Canada yesterday, their connecting flight was cancelled so they are stuck in Toronto for a day, then a flight with a 6 hour layover and then one flight after that.

All due to staff shortages...I fly tomorrow, the old anxiety is creeping up.

Has anybody been to the US since December 6th who has had Covid? I am due to fly there next month having just recovered. The CDC states

The covid recovery cert says its not a travel document so i am wondering if anyone has been over there and what docs they used? I presume the HSE is not handing out letters to say people have recovered from Covid and direct everyone to the recovery cert

Flying to France end of the month, have my booster, but they require proof of booster for entry. Are we able to see our booster data anywhere? Feels like a bunch of children are running the country

I'll just squeeze inside the 7 months but people im with won't be so lucky

Hi. I have a quick question . My wife (vaccinated and boosted) is abroad at the moment and due to return in 2 days. She has just got a negative antigen test in a pharmacy which they told her are accepted for travel. However she has noticed that it doesn’t have her passport number. The cert has her name, type and make of test, time, date,etc.

I have been trying to find out if she needs to have passport details on it but have found nothing.

Does anybody know if they will require passport details especially at the departure/check-in? She may need another test if they are picky about it.

France only accepting qr code of booster on your cert from the 15th January.
