Vaccinated and Ready to Travel! JENNIFER DONCSECZ, CTIE PRESIDENT, VIP VACATIONS INC CERTIFIED TRAVEL INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE
As the world begins to reopen post the Covid-19 pandemic, more and more countries require that visitors show proof of being fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Requiring vaccination status is not unusual. Many countries have had policies in place listing essential vaccinations as requisite for entry. Typhoid and Yellow Fever Vaccinations are often required for travel to several countries in Africa and Southeast Asia. If you are fully vaccinated for Covid-19 and are ready to travel, here are my top 5 destinations that make entry easy for those who are vaccinated.
1: Barbados. In May 2021, Barbados eased quarantine requirements for those who are vaccinated, thus paving the way for this destination to realistically reopen and start attracting tourism. If you are looking to travel to Barbados, my resort recommendation is Sandals Barbados as it is one of only 4 places on the entire island that offers covid testing (for free), which is a necessary requirement to return back to the USA.
2: Iceland. On April 6, 2021, Iceland broke away from
the European Union's closed borders declaration. It announced that fully vaccinated individuals could now arrive without quarantines in place. This announcement sparked a surge in hotel reservations and has made Iceland one of the most popular places to travel to in 2021. Fun fact, the population of the entire country of Iceland is roughly the same as the Lehigh Valley!
