More EU countries ease coronavirus border restrictions
France will open its borders to all arrivals from the EU and nations that fall under the border-free Schengen zone. People arriving in the country from within Europe will not be put under quarantine. However, travelers from Britain will face the same two-week confinement that is mandatory for visitors to the UK.
Greece will mandate quarantines for those arriving from a string of airports in eight EU countries and two main airports in Athens and Thessaloniki are reopening to travelers from 29 countries.
Switzerland will allow entry to people from all EU countries as well as the UK. It will also relax restrictions for Lichtenstein, Norway, Iceland and non-EU countries that are part of the European Free Trade Association with Switzerland.
Italy opened its borders to EU members, Schengen countries, the UK, and other countries from Monday; 25 airports in the country resumed passenger flights, and people from the EU, Schengen, the UK, and other countries are free to travel to and from Italy without the mandatory 14-day quarantine.
