Aer Lingus Cheers On Changes For Entry to Ireland from The United States And Canada

As of November 29th, 2020, arrivals from the United States and Canada will not be expected to restrict movements following receipt of a negative/not-detected result from a Covid-19 PCR test taken a minimum of five days after arrival in Ireland.

Aer Lingus, Ireland‘s official air carrier, celebrates this exemption for passengers from the requirement to undergo restricted movement or testing while exercising this essential function. This includes critical occupations, students and persons traveling for crucial family or business reasons. These changes represent positive steps towards facilitating increased safe international travel, which is critical to the Irish economy.

Aer Lingus Chief Commercial Officer David Shepherd noted, “Aer Lingus believes that the changes to entry to Ireland for passengers traveling from red zone areas and the US and Canada, along with positive developments regarding vaccines, the introduction of improved testing regimes, and our new flexible booking options — including the ability to change any flight on any fare type up to two hours before travel for free* — will encourage greater demand for international travel in 2021. And with great value prices on direct flights to Ireland, now is the time to book to have something to look forward to in 2021.”
