Passengers on the SAS 4700 flight from Nice to Oslo who arrived a minute after midnight on August 7 earned a nasty wonder on their landing: about 40 days. As Visit Norway leaves transparent on its website: “Anyone who arrives in Norway from will be quarantined for 10 days, with the exception of some countries in Europe where transmission is low enough.” France was one of those countries where passengers boarded the flight to Nice even at midnight, due to increased transmission in France according to Norwegian criteria (more than 20 new cases consisting of 100,000 inhabitants in the last 14 days), this loose access was halted for travellers who had been there, as well as those of the Swiss Array Monaco , the Czech Republic and several parts of Sweden which had also noticed an accumulation in some cases. Although the flight arrived only a minute after the rule came into force here, its 158 passengers were quarantined, and Norway did not suffer a build-up in its own cases.
As Elisabeth Johansen, an adviser to the Norwegian Ministry of Health, told the AFP news agency, it had been discussed exactly when the rule would come into force: 12 p.m. or 12:01 p.m. This one-minute difference may have come into play since Oslo Airport recorded the landing of the flight at midnight, however, the Flightradar24 online page recorded the landing a minute later. The resolution would take effect at midnight, so even though the flight landed nine minutes before your scheduled arrival, it was not early enough. And, as airline executives explain, passengers have been aware of the potential consequences. “The Norwegian government announced the move to the red zone a few days in advance,” says John Eckhoff, SAS’s head of media relations. “SAS emphasizes that it is the duty of the passenger to be informed at all times.”
Another country that has controlled the containment of the virus well is also tightening restrictions in some countries after a build-up in some cases. As of 17 August, Greece, which had gradually opened its borders to countries by reducing the number of coronavirus cases, now requires travellers from Sweden, the Czech Republic, Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain to submit negative control of COVID-19. within 72 hours. Entry times. The new rule stems from the discovery of 203 cases on Sunday, the highest number of coronavirus infections in Greece. What has not changed, at least so far, is that US citizens, unless they are the spouse or civil union of an EU or Schengen citizen, a permanent resident of an EU or Schengen country, a diplomat or a staff of a prohibited gym. But the settings in the global can be verified here.
