Returning to the U.S.
Updated 02-March-2022
Effective December 6, 2021, you must have a COVID-19 viral test (regardless of vaccination status or citizenship) no more than 1 day before you travel by air into the United States. The government of Honduras has ordered airlines not to let anyone board unless they can show a negative test result from a Government Authorized Clinic. You must show your negative result to the airline before you board your flight.
Convenient COVID Testing at West End Divers
We are currently offering to arrange rapid Government Approved COVID Testing at our dive center prior to your return trip. We have teamed up with Woods Medical Center who sends a Medical Practitioner on request to provide a valid test and documentation for most international travel (USA etc). Usually arranged for the day before departure, the test takes 15 minutes and costs $50.
Some European countries are requiring a PCR test for return. This test can also be provided, but will take 24 to 36 hours for results, as they must be delivered to, and returned from a lab on the mainland. Pre-scheduling for the best time window is advised. This test is $225.
Foreign Travelers to, or through the U.S.
White House and CDC have announced details of the new vaccination policy that will go into effect for international travelers on November 8. As of that date, foreign national air travelers to the United States will be required to be fully vaccinated and to provide proof of vaccination status as well as a COVID-19 viral test taken within 24 hours prior to boarding an airplane to the United States.
Please see the CDC’s webpage Testing and International Air Travel.
