International travel has taken a huge hit due the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Many countries have closed their borders to tourists, while others have required mandatory quarantines or proof of negative PCR tests upon arrival. That said, we’re starting to see some of these restrictions ease — a trend that will hopefully continue in the weeks and months to come.
One such country that has started welcoming foreigners in again is the United Arab Emirates, as Dubai and Abu Dhabi are both open for travelers. But what exactly does that mean for those planning a visit?
Well, be sure to register for the next Future of Travel webinar to find out, as TPG’s founder and CEO, Brian Kelly, welcomes Vincent Frascogna, Vice President of the Americas at Etihad Airways. They’ll cover a myriad of topics, including what’s being done to ensure the safety and well-being of passengers — and how the pandemic is shaping the future of travel to the Middle East.
