Thanks! I was hoping to travel to Greece in the fall but I guess I’ll have to postpone my trip to next year, if covid finally gives us a rest. Also, I just read that the rules will change in 2022 and that we will need to fill in an ETIAS application to enter Greece, on top of the current travel restrictions. It doesn’t seem too complicated and pretty straightforward but I wanted to share this information if you didn’t already know.
