As more and more Americans are getting vaccinated, many are already starting to dream of a summer vacation in Europe. How close is that to becoming a reality?
A couple of weeks back, CNBC reported that the Biden administration was rumored to be considering relaxing travel restrictions as soon as mid-May. This would affect travel between the US and Mexico, Canada, and inbound travel from the UK, Europe, and Brazil.
But don’t book your flights yet; there has so far been no policy memo or formalization of the timeline of the restriction rollback. The immediate concern is to limit the spread of Covid-19 variants domestically before any travel is reopened.
Officials have suggested that a mid-May reopening date is too soon, but mid-May does coincide with a higher availability of vaccines.
Stay safe until then — and we look forward to giving you a ride when travel resumes!
