Aer Lingus have launched money-saving deals on their flights from Edinburgh Airport to the US.
The States have updated their entry requirements after implementing strict border controls over the pandemic.
From Sunday, arrivals who are fully vaccinated no longer need to take a pre-departure test before entering before setting off.

Edinburgh Airport customers can now fly to North America from the capital and enjoy up to £100 off economy and business class flights for July right through to September.
As Hull Live reports, with connections from Birmingham, Manchester, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, as well as Heathrow and Gatwick travelling through Aer Lingus’ hub at Dublin, it is a great option for those travelling to or from USA.
The offer is available on Aer Lingus transatlantic flights booked before Friday June 17.
Reid Moody, chief strategy and planning officer said: “The announcement of the lifting of testing on travel into the US is warmly welcomed by all of us in Aer Lingus. We’re looking forward to welcoming our customers back onboard this summer, and reconnecting families, friends and colleagues, and supporting business and tourism on both sides of the Atlantic.”
Julia Simpson, president and chief executive of the World Travel and Tourism Council, added: "We welcome the decision by the Biden administration to lift the damaging testing requirement for travellers. It will provide much-needed relief to the embattled sector.
"The long-term recovery of US travel and tourism now looks positive, with our projections showing that a fully recovered sector will create more than six million new jobs over the next 10 years. But short term, the measure caused untold damage to an already devastated sector as international visitor spending has been so low over the past two years.”
