New Covid Travel Requirements: Updated: January 13, 2021
Pre-flight Testing Requirement for Entry to The United States
On Jan 12, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control in the United States issued an order requiring all incoming airline passengers to the United States to provide documentation (paper or electronic) of a negative COVID-19 test. 1) The test must be administered within 3 calendar days prior to the flight’s departure 2) The order applies to all passengers 2 years of age and older. 3) The test must be a viral test.
Alternatively, travelers may provide documentation of a prior COVID-19 infection along with a letter from a health professional clearing them for travel. The date of the infection must be within 90 days of the flight’s departure.
If you have specific questions not addressed here, you can review the CDC FAQ or check with your airline. Airlines are charged with enforcing the order, and there may be some variability in procedures and implementation.
All our guests at Tulemar will have the necessary testing made available to them locally at either a private local medical clinic or upon availability, coordinating an on-site visit in Tulemar from a medical professional. Costs are estimated to be approximately $100 per test.
Our concierge team will assist all guests with appointments for testing, arranging transportation and delivery of the results.
