Global Travel Update: March 7th Edition
Current requirements and restrictions on travel
This weekly update is just a selection of the latest information on entry requirements and new restrictions. For a full list of destinations and each country's entry requirements for U.S. and Canadian passport holders, please visit our website.
The list of international travel destinations that your clients can safely travel to is ever-changing, so all outbound passengers should check with the U.S. Embassy or Canadian Government and their preferred airline before finalizing travel plans. And while the Government of Canada has strongly advised against non-essential travel, our Destination Experts are happy to help you craft trips for your Canadian clients departing later in the year and into 2022.
Be sure to read further for some inspirational Kensington Tours itineraries you can book now, risk-free for your clients. This week's highlighted destinations:
United States: -
National Parks: There are currently no domestic entry restrictions for the states of Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Montana or Wyoming.
-
Alaska: Visitors from out-of-state are required to submit a travel declaration and a self-isolation plan online before traveling. To avoid quarantine, they must then either arrive with a negative COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours before departure; or get tested upon arrival and self-quarantine until the results are available. Travelers must follow "strict social distancing" for five days after arrival. Alaska then recommends, but does not require, travelers get a second test five to 14 days later. Fully vaccinated travelers are still required to follow pre-travel testing protocols, but do not need to follow strict social distancing while they are awaiting test results should they choose to test on arrival to Alaska.
-
Hawaii: Visitors (aged 5 and older) are allowed to skip the state's mandatory quarantine if they provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test from a certified laboratory taken within 72 hours before boarding their final leg flight to one of the following Hawaiian destinations: Island of Hawaii (Big Island), Maui or Oahu. Direct travel to Kauai still remains restricted to a 14-day quarantine upon arrival (unless you are on one of the other islands for at least 3 days, AND can provide another negative test result, then inter-island travel to Kauai is possible). The State of Hawaii will ONLY accept Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT) results from a certified Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) lab.
Latin America: Middle East: Important Note for Returning U.S. and Canadian Passengers: -
U.S.: All American passengers over the age of 2 years must provide one of the following before boarding their flight back into the U.S. -
Canada: All Canadian passengers over the age of 5 years must provide a negative COVID-19 test result (PCR or LAMP) taken within 72-hours prior to boarding their flight into Canada. Returning passengers will also be tested for COVID-19 on arrival and will be required to stay in a designated hotel for 3 nights at their own expense until the test result is obtained. Those testing positive will be required to quarantine in a designated government facility for 14 days. Those testing negative will be required to quarantine for 14 days at their own accommodation. Travelers with no adequate place to quarantine will be required to quarantine at a designated facility.
