COVID-TESTED FLIGHTS FROM ATLANTA TO AMSTERDAM

^{(Added December 15, 2020)}

Trans-Atlantic partners Delta Air Lines and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines are launching COVID-tested flights from Atlanta to Amsterdam, effective Dec. 15. The airline partners have worked with the Dutch government, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to deliver a comprehensive COVID-19 testing program that will allow eligible customers to be exempt from quarantine on arrival after receiving a negative PCR test result on landing in the Netherlands.

The COVID-tested flights will operate four times per week from Atlanta to Amsterdam, with Delta and KLM operating two frequencies each. Only passengers with negative test results will be accepted on board. The flights will initially run for three weeks and, if successful, the airlines hope to extend the program to other markets. 

To fly on Delta and KLM’s COVID-tested flights from Atlanta to Amsterdam, customers will need to:

• Take a COVID-19 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test 5 days before arrival in Amsterdam.
• Take a rapid antigen prior to boarding at the Atlanta airport.
• Take a PCR test directly upon arrival at Schiphol.

This new protocol will be available to all citizens permitted to travel to the Netherlands for essential reasons, such as for certain specified work, health and education reasons Customers who are transiting via Amsterdam to other countries will still be required to follow entry requirements and any mandatory quarantine in place at their final destination.
