After almost two years of onerous restrictions – and some outright travel bans – coronavirus rules are easing rapidly across the world.
On Monday 21 February most of Australia ended its international isolation, welcoming back fully vaccinated tourists, family visitors and business travellers.
Yet complex rules on testing – and flight connections – remain across the world.
In addition, the largest state down under, Western Australia, is keeping its frontiers closed for now .
Travellers must also check the Covid testing requirements of connecting points along the way, such as Dubai.
In Europe, the pace of change is accelerating. In the past 10 days France, Spain, Norway and Switzerland have all reduced their barriers to travel.
So what do these changes mean for your future plans? And will countries continue to insist on special rules for unvaccinated travellers?
