    Anyone know if Greece are going to drop test requirements for kids? Heading in summer and hoping they drop it.

    Apologies lads but I am a bit confused. Is an EU Covid Recovery cert that was issued a month ago acceptable in lieu of an antigen test (within 24 hours) for travel to the US. Heading on Wednesday.

    Anybody know the restrictions of masks and stuff in Germany. If required specifically Frankfurt.

    No issues with the vax and proof it's more the everyday life.

    Is a mask required and if so is an ffp2 mask required?

    How's Dublin Airport these days? Planning to fly out next Sunday morning at 8.30 and just wondering if there are still crazy queues through security?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,460 ✭✭✭bikeman1


    I was there on Friday afternoon just gone. I was through in 21 minutes. It was very busy, but moved along very well. That was T1 just before the evening wave of flights.



  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators Posts: 7,039 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sheep Shagger


    Yes and you used to also need a doctors fit to fly note too. Note you can't use verify with a recovery cert.

    So no booster required for EU travel if second dose date is less than 270 days ago?

    Here’s my experience. Uploaded my vaccination cert and my recovery Cert to the Verifly app and got my pass to travel. Took a belt and braces approach and got an antigen test just in case but did not upload it to Verifly. Checked in at DUB and asked the check in person if I needed the antigen test as I didn’t have a letter from doc re recovery. She said no, all I needed was to upload the Recovery Cert. US CBP never asked.

    Any time limits for Recovery cert for Spain or Portugal? The vaccination cert must be within 270 days of arrival from what I can find, no limit n booster certs.


    *Edit - just realized there's an expiry date on the recovery cert, thanks anyway.

    I found getting in to France, there was no real check. There was just some signs in the airport saying I had to have it. Getting home however, they checked DCC in Paris Orly for me to get through security.

    As I posted in another thread,

    Wouldn't get yourself too excited just yet, that EASA & ECDC advice is still very vague.

    It'll vary by airline depending on the carriers policy and depending on your destination the carrier could still be mandated by domestic legislation.

    Almost every European airline that can legally drop mask rules (based on their country's public transport mask rules) has already done so. Aer Lingus being a notable exception. Hopefully Aer Lingus and Ryanair drop them now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,572 ✭✭✭VG31


    Aer Lingus mask requirements from Monday

    Effective 16 May 2022, face masks are optional on flights between Ireland and certain countries. If your departure or destination country has a mandatory face mask policy on public transport, face masks will still be required on board the aircraft to and from those routes.


    Where are face masks optional?


    Domestic flights: Travel within Ireland


    UK flights: Travel between Ireland / Belfast and the UK


    Flights within Europe: Travel between Ireland and Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Greece, Switzerland


    Transatlantic flights: Travel between Ireland and the USA | Travel between Manchester and the USA


    Where are face masks still required and mandatory?


    Flights within Europe: Flights between Ireland and Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Turkey.

    (Note: If you are travelling to/from Austria or Italy, you are required to wear an "FFP2" type face mask.)


    Transatlantic flights: Flights between Ireland and Canada

    France and the Netherlands have announced they are dropping mask rules on flights from the 16th so I'm not sure why they are on the mandatory list. Belgium are also expected to lift mask rules on public transport soon.

    Ryanair mask requirements from Monday

    Mask will still be required in flights to the following countries:

    Austria

    Latvia

    Cyprus

    Lithuania

    Czech Republic

    Luxemburg

    Estonia

    Malta

    France

    Netherlands

    Germany

    Portugal

    Greece

    Spain

    Italy

    The Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands and possibly Estonia should not be on this list.

    I have sympathy for the cabin crew with this. Its going to be even more of a huge pain for them trying to enforce this now. No masks in airports, and no masks on 80% of flights... Good luck having to explain repeatedly to people and trying to force them to keep masks on for the remaining 20%.

    Just back from France no covid documents required at the French end.

    Biarritz airport no masks required or really anywhere in France except public transport.

    Seems back to normal, a few people wearing masks here and there, they largely seemed to have moved on.

    Masks required on the plane, Ryanair but the first time I have seen this, not enforced with effort.

    There was a number of people on the plane without masks, some just forgot they needed one.

    Spain has extended their travel restrictions until June 15.

    Czechia have removed all mask requirements too. They still have the odd sign up. No masks on flights, no masks in hotels or in public transport. Maybe 1 in 100 wearing them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20 Howok


    It's a good idea



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I wonder when will such necessities be no longer needed. No need for PCRs and vaccine proof. I'm not getting a second booster and if a PCR comes back positive then that's a whole pile of money gone.



  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,279 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    Already gone for some countries, Greece you don't need anything now, hopefully others will follow soon.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 842 ✭✭✭Hego Damask


    To keep the covidians here happy I guess.

    It's bizarre lately they haven't been checking documentation, they just wave you through.

    A real bureaucratic PERO BUENO shithole...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,343 ✭✭✭sunbabe08

    Any plans/rumours about the US relaxing their vaccination requirement for non-US people traveling to the US? How much longer will the requirement remain in place?

    Asking for a friend 🙂
