Flights from Dubai to two popular destinations in France will be resuming in July.
According to Emirates Airline, this comes after the French government announced quarantine-free entry for vaccinated visitors starting today - provided they've completed a two-week period after taking both doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech or AstraZeneca vaccine.
The Dubai-based carrier said it will be offering four flights a week to each city with operations resuming to Nice from July 2 and to Lyon from July 9.
Fully vaccinated passengers will still be required to present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result with a validity of no more than 72 hours prior to departure.
A rapid antigen test result taken within 48 hours will also be accepted.
