As the federal government loosens testing requirements for international travel, more Canadians are looking to hop on a plane and take a trip abroad.
While many Canadians remain anxious about travelling, some are ready to jet off after more than two years in a pandemic with stringent public health measures.
While the federal government has removed pre-entry testing requirements for fully vaccinated Canadians, some pandemic-related travel rules remain in effect. CTVNews.ca breaks down what travellers need to know for April 1.
As of April 1, 2022 at 12:01 a.m. ET, fully vaccinated travellers no longer need to provide a negative pre-entry COVID-19 test result to enter Canada by air, land or water.
Passengers may still be subjected to mandatory, random PCR testing at the airport — in part to monitor for new, emerging COVID-19 variants — though they will not be required to isolate while awaiting their results.
