And that, unfortunately, takes five or six times longer than a normal check-in,&#8221; Maaike Andries, spokesperson for Brussels Airlines, told EFE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has taken several months of work with the national authorities and the airport to get everything ready so that passengers can now travel with their certificate between EU countries, says Andries, who points out that it should be the state that checks its validity &#8220;and not leave all the responsibility to the airlines&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
