Under the new \u201cTraffic Light\u201d System, the European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) confirmed it is safe to travel to 15 EU countries without any travel restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/en\/2020\/10\/ryanair-says-its-priority-is-the-boeing-737-max.html\">Ryanair says its priority is the Boeing 737 MAX.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Europe\u2019s aviation and tourism industries cannot suffer any delay to the adoption of this new system, as millions of jobs are at risk as Europe moves into a very difficult winter season. This common EU framework will help restore confidence in air travel and end the contradictory different national policies across Europe that have damaged customer demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/en\/2020\/10\/iata-claims-that-only-44-covid-19-infections-were-demonstrated-on-aircraft.html\">IATA claims that only 44 COVID-19 infections were demonstrated on aircraft.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new EU \u2018Traffic Light\u2019 System allows safe travel to\/from 15 countries listed as \u2018green\u2019 and \u2018amber\u2019 with no restrictions. For 15 \u2018red\u2019-list countries, there may be restrictions in place (e.g testing pre-departure\/on arrival). The new \u201cTraffic Light\u201d System also recommends that member states apply a regional approach where possible to ensure regions or islands with low levels of Covid are not penalised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Health experts \u2013 including the WHO &amp; the ECDC \u2013 confirm that quarantines don\u2019t work, and air travel represents minimal risk for the spread of the virus. In fact, Ryanair has carried over 16.5m passengers this summer with zero inflight transmissions. The adoption of the EU \u2018Traffic Light\u2019 System will allow families to re-unite and businesses to thrive, as the world recovers from the Covid-19 crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe urge all EU Govts to adopt the EU \u201cTraffic Light\u201d System without delay. Europe\u2019s aviation and tourism industries cannot afford further job losses, and until a vaccine is available, we must learn to live with the virus&#8221;, said Ryanair\u2019s CEO Eddie Wilson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The implementation of this coordinated regional approach will help restore consumer confidence ahead of a difficult winter season, and also allow all airlines plan for Summer 2021, with millions of jobs dependent on the recovery of our aviation and tourism sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As confirmed by the WHO, aviation is not responsible for an increase in EU Covid rates and quarantines simply don\u2019t work. EU Govts need to act fast and implement the EU \u201cTraffic Light\u201d System immediately following next week\u2019s Council meeting and give Europe\u2019s tourism economies the relief that\u2019s much needed\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top
