EU Travel Ban Does Not Apply to U.S. Citizens & Other Clarifications on the Europe Travel Ban ~ From Maureen Dinnocenzo
Arnold, CA...Can U.S. Citizens come home early? YES, there is a waiver for free changes. This is based on airline availability. Will travelers be put into quarantine upon arrival/return? As of the latest news, no . Only if they are returning from Level 3 Territories. How long will the European ban last? 30 days. When does this start? As of March 13 at 12:00 a.m. Can travelers still travel to Europe as a U.S. Citizen? Yes Can travelers refund their tickets? If their originally scheduled flight is canceled, there may be an opportunity to get a full refund. Most airlines are still processing free changes. Non-refundable tickets are still non-refundable. The travel ban applies to E.U. Citizens and not U.S. Citizens
From DHS..."President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Proclamation, which suspends the entry of most foreign nationals who have been in certain European countries at any point during the 14 days prior to their scheduled arrival to the United States. These countries, known as the Schengen Area, include Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. This does not apply to legal permanent residents, (generally) immediate family members of U.S. citizens, and other individuals who are identified in the proclamation.
