Americans who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 will be allowed to cross the Canadian border beginning on August 9.

As of July 19, U.S. visitors who have been vaccinated, have a negative PCR test within 72 hours of arrival or have recovered from COVID-19 in the last six months will be able to visit Ireland and they will not have to quarantine.

Europe is opening up to Americans and other visitors after more than a year of COVID-induced restrictions. But travelers will need patience to figure out who’s allowed into which country, how and when.

The Canadian luxury rail-tour company has announced that it has delayed the start of its travel season in the country until at least 5 July 2021; the operator had previously hoped to begin offering services in June.

The UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has published updated information for Cuba to reflect that since 6 February, the country has been requiring most international arrivals to quarantine for five days upon arrival, with the exception of those that are part of an organised tour group; business travellers are not exempt from this measure, which also includes COVID-19 testing on day three with results by day five. The Cuban government has created a list of approved quarantine hotels for tourists arriving in the country, with costing up to $846 (USD) per person with airport transfers and three meals a day. All passengers are also required to present proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test result on arrival, obtained no more than no 72 hours prior to arrival.
