FOR TRAVEL MANAGERS

Starting January 26, 2021, air passengers entering the U.S. will be required to present documentation of a negative COVID-19 viral test (called a Qualifying Test) conducted within the three days before their flight to the U.S. departs. As your resource and advocate for all things travel, it’s our goal to arm you with the information you need to stay in the know and confident on the impact travel regulations and changes thereof have on your organization.

We are here to help guide you as you initiate policy updates and create education for your travelers to support any changing CDC requirements and to address further COVID-19 needs.
