According to the airlines, the Netherlands has taken too strict measures against US passengers.
While the global aviation is spreading cautious optimism from the resumption of operations to the pre-coronavirus pandemic, one of Europe’s largest carriers is shifting reverse on long-haul routes.
The Dutch KLM has announced that it will not launch new planned routes from Amsterdam to Orlando, Miami and Las Vegas from the winter. The reason is the decision of the Dutch government, which newly included the United States of America in the list of countries with a high risk of infection. Even vaccinated passengers from the USA to the Netherlands must now be quarantined for ten days.
KLM said in its report that the fight against coronavirus is important, but it is equally important that entry conditions are similar to those in other countries. “Italy, France and Belgium do not have as strict conditions vis-à-vis US passengers as the Netherlands,“The airlines complained. “It’s a big step back for us,“Added the carrier.
