On January 9th, 2020, a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was identified as a cause. Corona viruses are a group of viruses that usually cause respiratory infections of varying severity to humans and animals. It is estimated that almost one third of infections of the upper respiratory system in humans can be caused by coronaviruses.

    The overwhelming majority of cases have been reported in China. The novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is transmitted from human-to-human. Transmission has also been documented in health professionals. Infection caused by the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) can manifest with fever, cough, and shortness of breath, sore throat and in serious cases with pneumonia.

    Confirmed cases have been reported worldwide, in Asia, the Middle East, Europe as well as in the United States of America, Canada and Australia. According to the World Health Organization there are present travel restrictions in effect.

    Advice for travellers

    European governments have taken various restrictive measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus and to protect lives. The situation is changing fast and so is the response by Member States of the European Union. For more information concerning the measures taken by each Member State, visit https://reopen.europa.eu/en. It is recommended that travellers avoid nonessential travel to areas with presumed ongoing community transmission of COVID-19 (https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/areas-presumed-ongoing-community-transmission-2019-ncov). Vaccines have been developed in order to combat the pandemic worldwide.

    If you are travelling to areas with presumed ongoing community transmission of COVID-19 you should:

    • Wash your hands regularly with soap and water or a disinfectant, especially after coughing or sneezing, before handling and consuming food.
    • Avoid contact with animals (dead or alive), meat markets and meat products (such as raw meat).
    • Avoid visiting live bird and animal markets.
    • Avoid contact with patients who appear ill with respiratory symptoms.

    During your stay in areas with presumed ongoing community transmission of COVID-19 you should:

    • Postpone your trip if you have fever and/or respiratory symptoms such as cough or shortness of breath.
    • Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or with your elbow (not with your hands) when you cough or sneeze.
    • Avoid contact with other people if you have fever and/or respiratory symptoms such as cough or shortness of breath.

    After your return from areas with presumed ongoing community transmission of COVID-19:

    • Monitor your health closely for 14 days.
    • If you develop fever and/or respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath or cough 14 days after you have returned, it is recommended that you stay indoors and immediately seek medical attention, mentioning your recent trip, or contact the National Public Health Organization (210-5212000, 210-5212054).

    Traveling Guidelines

    Travel by Ferry

    According to the new safety measures issued by the Greek Maritime Ministry, all passengers need to carry with them before boarding:

    • Ferry ticket printed or in e-ticket format.
    • Passport or National ID card
    • Health Status questionnaire - completed
    • Face mask

    Travel by Airplane

    In accordance with the guidelines of the national health authorities, the meticulous observance of rules for hand washing / sanitizing and for respiratory hygiene, the use of face masks, physical distance keeping, very good cleaning and sanitizing of spaces and surfaces, especially of those frequently hand touched, are the basis for the protection of passengers and employees at Athens International Airport. Passengers travelling on domestic or international flights should bear in mind the following:

    • Entrance in the Main Terminal Building and the airport premises is permitted to ticketed passengers only. Exceptions exist for specific cases (escorted minors, escorted passengers with disabilities).
    • The use of face masks is obligatory after entering the airport terminal; the mask will be kept throughout the passenger’s stay in the airport areas (Joint Ministerial Decision of May17th, Gov. Gazette Bulletin 1869/Δ1α/ΓΠ.οικ.30612). Children under the age of 6 as well as those with respiratory problems are excluded. Passengers should also be aware that they may be asked to temporarily remove their mask during security and identity check processes.
    • The use of face masks is also obligatory during boarding, as well as during the flight. It is recommended to change the face mask every 4 hours or in the case of the face mask being wet or soiled. Make sure you have enough quantity for your entire trip.
    • Airport employees are equipped with all personal protection items (masks, gloves, sanitizing liquids), which they are using at all times during their work.
    • Hand sanitizer dispensers are available in over 300 spots at the airport, including bathrooms and restrooms, for use by the passengers during the departure and arrival processes.
    • Polycarbonate panels are used for additional protection during the provision of services conducted in direct contact with employees (ticket desks, information counters, etc.).
    • Keeping distances is mainly a behavioural measure for passengers and airport staff, and a distance of 1.5 metres should be kept during all phases of the travelling processes on ground. Special signage is placed on floor surfaces alerting the public on this necessity, which is also communicated through airport screens and banners.
    • Passengers are encouraged to select e-services options prior to their departure to the airport (web check-in) as well as within the airport areas (web check-in, self check-in, baggage tag printing, drop off baggage, e-parking).
    • Seating in all waiting areas has been rearranged, in order to allow for minimum distances to be kept. It is recommended that one seat be left vacant next to each seated passenger. Families or couples travelling together do not have to keep this distance.
    • The air-conditioning system in the airport facilities provides fresh, renewed, and top-down recycled air, in order to limit the horizontal air circulation. Furthermore, the air is filtered for dust, viruses and bacteria or fungi, through special filters.
