All passengers must also fill the PLF ( https://travel.gov.gr/#/  ) the soonest possible and the latest 48 hours prior to their departure.Upon arrival in Greece all passengers must present proof of their temporary residence in Greece.

Note that you will be among the 10.000 travelers permitted to fly to Greece only if you successfully complete the PLF.In case of receiving a negative response from the PLF system ,you will have to re-schedule your trip to Greece.

A Covid-19 test will be randomly performed upon arrival in Greece.Passengers tested for Covid-19 must stay in isolation for maximum 48 hours, waiting for the results, in  their temporary residence in Greece.

Only travelers with connecting flights to other Greek destinations will be tested to their final destination and will be obliged to isolate there.
