After the previews, came in the last few hours the official decision regarding the change in requirements for international travelers to enter the United States.
The first big news that will make all Italians happy is that there is currently no quarantine for those arriving from abroad, so vacations over the Christmas and New Year period are safe.
Because of the Worldwide concern triggered by Omicron variant, the Biden administration has required all international travelers to the U.S. to Report for boarding with a negative swab taken no later than the day before departure.
This change is not too problematic for Italian travelers, since quick pads are also accepted, those that are done anywhere in Italy and generate the green pass. All you have to do then is print it out and show up at boarding with the result and the vaccination certificate.
All passengers age 2 and older with a flight departing to the United States from a foreign country, After 00:01 EST (5:01 GMT) on December 6, 2021, will have to present themselves at boarding with a negative Covid-19 test result performed no more than one day before travel or documentation that they have been cured of Covid-19 within the past 90 days.
