Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Covid-19: Impact on International Travel

Mr. Evan Cullen:

There are tests that can be turned around in a number of hours and we do not see why passengers would not be asked to hold at the airport in various hotels until the results come back. We believe this is the only way to tackle this and reopen the economy and the aviation sector.

The other thing fundamental to all of this is why Ireland is an outlier in terms of its travel policy, restrictions on travel and refusal to assist the industry it is crippling with these restrictions.
