The White House announced it will lift travel restrictions for fully vaccinated foreign nationals effective November 8, at land borders and for air travel, ending historic restrictions that had barred much of the world from entering the country
U.S. international air passenger traffic was down 43% in August and overall passenger air traffic was down 21% over pre-pandemic levels, the U.S. Transportation Department said Friday.
On Tuesday, the White House announced it would lift restrictions at its land borders and ferry crossings with Canada and Mexico for fully vaccinated foreign nationals in early November. They are similar but not identical to requirements announced last month for international air travelers. U.S. Travel Association Chief Executive Roger Dow said declines in international visits since the pandemic started resulted in more than $250 billion in lost income.
The White House said last month it would apply vaccine requirements to foreign nationals traveling from all other countries.
