Greece is set to scrap the remainder of its Covid-related travel restrictions on May 1, the country’s health minister has confirmed - just in time for its summer tourist season. The requirement to wear masks - in indoor public places and outdoor places where it is hard to socially distance - will remain until June 1. For travellers, it means a near-frictionless return to one of the most popular summer holiday spots in just over a week’s time. From June 1, they will no longer have to wear a mask in indoor spaces such as hotel lobbies and museums. Once the initial rules are eased, Greece will join a list of over a dozen countries including Ireland, Poland, Sweden, Iceland and Madeira that have dropped all Covid travel restrictions.
