Rome With the signing of a specific decree by the Minister of Health Roberto Speranza, the travel world is taking a new step towards the long-awaited return to normal life. Thanks to vaccinations, tampons, and a green driveway, we can already enjoy a level of freedom that seemed unattainable until a few months ago, but now novelty will be especially appreciated by those who can’t wait to get back to travel beyond national borders.
So far, in fact, trips abroad have been classified on the basis of certain risk categories established by the government in cooperation with European authorities. If traveling to Europe requires a lower level of attention, the same cannot be said about holidays outside the Old Continent. But the current situation is characterized by increasing optimism. This was demonstrated, among other things, by the decision of the United States of America to allow the return of European tourists to the country from November, provided that they have been vaccinated with one of the vaccines currently authorized by the US government (Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, while There are still some doubts about AstraZeneca).
How will Covid-free corridors work?
Instead, the CEO led by Mario Draghi went in a different direction, with the creation of demo lanes to six international destinations. This is the possibility for tourists to travel, from October 1, 2021 to January 31, 2022, to some destinations Without having to go through credit isolation when returning to Italy.
However, the ministry’s experts have placed some bets: in fact, according to the decree, travelers are required to “present a certificate that they have undergone a molecular or antigenic test in the past 48 hours”, as well as undergo another on-site test in the event of the duration of travel. 7 days or more.
Basically, to travel to these countries, you must have a Green Pass (vaccination, negative test or recovery from Covid-19) and Undergoing one or two tampons Before / during the flight. In this way, according to religion, passages Controlled ToursHowever, taking care to choose accommodation facilities that guarantee Specific health safety measures To prevent possible transmission of COVID-19 infection.
Always return to Italy, it will be necessary Undergo an additional tampon To make sure there is no infection. Only in this way will it be possible to avoid credit isolation on return which, let’s remember, has a variable duration from 10 to 14 days.
Countries participating in the project
But what are the countries involved in the project? Italian travelers will be able to go freely (provided they have the Green Passage and are subject to 2 or 3 tampons) at two US destinations and four in the Africa and Indian Ocean sector. We are talking about ArubaAnd the moldive IslandsAnd MauritiusAnd SeychellesAnd Republic Dominican so Egypt. In the latter case, the safe passage does not cover the entire national territory but is limited to areas Sharm-El-Sheikh NS Marsa Alam.
Minister Esperanza’s decision is coupled with the news that will soon be proposed in the Council of Ministers regarding the capacities of places of culture and entertainment, which, among other things, will lead to a higher filling coefficients. Particularly involved are theaters and cinemas, which will be able to accommodate up to 80% of the original capacity, and the museums that will be located in them. Restrictions are completely abolishedAs long as you stick to the now-standard rules for quotas, masks, and green lane control.
