Greece extends NOTAM for passengers from Russia

The Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority extended the aviation directive (NOTAM) concerning travellers arriving  from Russia.

500 Russian citizens per week will be allowed to travel to Greece provided they present a negative Covid-19 test result on arrival to the country.

The test cannot be older than 72 hours prior to their arrival in Greece. Further, they must also present documentation of their residence (hotel booking or other accommodation) in Greece.

Flights will only land at the airports of Athens, Thessaloniki and Heraklion (Crete).

The Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority said that the NOTAM will remain in effect until Monday, October 5.

A fine of €5,000 will be imposed on those who violate the rules.

All passengers arriving in Greece must fill in a Passenger Locator Form (PLF) at least a day before arrival, providing information that will include their departure airport, the address where they will be staying and the expected duration of their stay in Greece, among others. The information on the form is a key element of the country’s planning for protection against the pandemic and preventing the spread of the virus.
