    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Well, that’s my trip cancelled….

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Health Pass ( QR Code) update for Americans from Le Puy

    Have been traveling Le Puy Camino since third week in July. We have had no problem using CDC vax card in place of French QR in even small towns. It is an acceptable alternative. If you come from a state, like NYC, that offers a QR prob wouldn’t hurt to load it on your phone but I wouldn’t spend...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Why you can’t do online check in:

    Leaving from NYC today. Tried to check in online yesterday: no dice. Made me nervous because sometimes that correlates with getting “selected” for extra screening, which happened to me once and was no fun. When got to airport the real reason was revealed: an airline employee needs to see your...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    So just to provide a coda. I was able to book an appointment for an Antigen (or PCR) test at a clinic in Pamplona. I booked another in the Madrid airport for the morning of my connecting flight in case something goes wrong getting the first one.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    Made an appointment for the morning of the flight out of Madrid. Very easy. Cost me 25 Euros, but worth the peace of mind even if I end up not needing it. I'm sure any number of things can still go wrong, but at least I have one plan in place. Thank you for the help!

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    Thank you! This is a super helpful answer. I had been perusing the document bc I could have sworn I saw antigen tests mentioned but then couldn't find it again. I'll make an appointment for the morning of the flight to the US. I won't have time for the PCR despite an overnight layover bc I get...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    I know all this. Not getting into debating the wisdom of CDC policy insofar as it differs from that of other nations so don't feel you need to defend the thinking to me. I live in NYC so I'm pretty well informed on Covid. Just need to figure out how to comply.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    Madrid airport can do an Antigen test in the right timeframe but I cannot tell if that is adequate bc CDC order is so dense (actually trying to read the document)

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    Well, I am flying out of Pamplona with a transfer in Madrid so I have to make that work for me one way or another. Oddly I have an overnight layover (literally like 11 pm to 11 am) in Madrid which and I'm guessing the 3-day clock applies to the US leg from Madrid making things tighter still. I...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    I saw them. Was having trouble penetrating their web site but I sent them an email asking about timing since they seemed to imply turnaround varied by locale. The CDC guidelines are confounding because they don't actually prohibit rapid testing it just has to be certain kind.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD PCR test Pamplona

    We are doing Camino Le Puy and then walking to Pamplona where some of us will go back to US while others continue to Santiago de Compestela. I am realizing that the US government may still be requiring negative PCR tests for travelers to the US, even those that are fully vaccinated. I cannot...
