    I had to interrupt my Camino as I fell and sustained a fracture of the humerus on the afternoon of May 26th. I was seen in a clinic in Betanzos on the Ingles route. Covid tests not done there, but figured that I could get it done at SCQ airport (Santiago)-- the hours were only from 10 AM to 2...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD US Pilgrim on Camino Frances: France and Spain travel

    Hi Herman, airlines are going to those sorts of systems to expedite matters. American Airlines abd several of its One World partners use VeriFLY. I was in a situation where I didn’t have a working computer but was able to download and print the blank form required by France— no holdups...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Multi country hikes and travel within Europe

    Masks apply to TRANSPORT within Italy. Most are not wearing masks at all while outside or inside except in specific places.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD US Pilgrim on Camino Frances: France and Spain travel

    OK, I should have written "locator form" instead of "tracking form." To me, it's all so similar that I've used the terms interchangeably. The website for all this information is on the site: https://app.euplf.eu/#/ Some of the airlines have copies of blank locator forms. The counter at...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Covid certificates to pass from Spain to France to start Camino

    Is anything similar to the Spanish SpTH form needed if taking the bus from Portugal into Galicia to start walking? The SpTH is geared only for flights and the site won't allow one to submit it without flight numbers entered. I was hoping that these requirements wold have been dropped or...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Is QR code needed WALKING into Spain?

    I'll be taking a bus from Braga, Portugal to Spain to begin my Portuguese Coastal Camino on the Spanish side. I have already purchased a bus ticket for mid-May and the bus company's site has very old information posted (from May 2020). Portuguese Embassy info is difficult to follow. Has...

    Thank you, Kather1na! Yes, it does seem to be confusing, but I'm sure that most powers that be want to be both reasonable and logical while in the spirit of protecting everyone.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Travelling to France - Can I get Vaccine (Health) Pass at the airport pharmacy?

    I will also need this pass, as am flying into Paris on April 16th. Once I have this pass in hand, will it be accepted in Italy, Portugal and Spain, or will I need separate passes for those countries?
