The list of the 29 countries whose citizens will be permitted to travel to Greece by air from June 15 onwards was released.
The foreign flights will initially land in the airports of the cities of Athens and Thessaloniki.
The list of 29 countries was formed after a study of the epidemiological profile of the countries of origin of tourists and after taking into consideration yesterday’s announcements of the European Air Safety Agency (EASA), as well as the relevant proposal of the Committee of Infectious Diseases in Greece.
These include, among others, the Balkan countries, Germany, which is the first market for incoming tourism for Greece, but also more distant markets such as China, Japan, and South Korea.
The list of countries in detail, based on the relevant announcements from the Ministry of Tourism is the following:
Albania, Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, China, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Japan, Latvia, Lebanon, Lithuania, Malta, Montenegro, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Norway, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Switzerland, and Finland.
Visitors from these countries will be sampled, while the existing safety regulations already in effect will continue to apply to all those entering the country.
The list will be expanded starting on July 1 and will be announced in time. In any case, the epidemiological monitoring and evaluation will be continuous, as pointed out by the Ministry of Tourism.
