MIAMI – In an unexpected move, Finnair (AY) has issued a press release indicating that the carrier is accepting vaccination certificates as proof of travel credentials with effect from May 11.
The decision, the first of its kind, is presented as an alternative to a Covid negative test or proof of a previously contracted infection. Such credential is considered valid after the first vaccine injection has been administered without waiting for the immunization to be completed.
Finnair requires, since late January, that all passengers traveling to Finland – excluding transfer passengers – present either a negative test certificate or an immunity/recovery certificate as a prerequisite for boarding. This requirement is in line with the recommendations from the Finnish Institute of Health and Welfare.
