Greece's jumping COVID-19 rate has led Ireland to add travel restrictions on Greek tourists, including quarantines if they're still willing to take the risk to travel there, upsetting the dominant Irish airlines Ryanair and Aer Lingus.
Italian also face the same measures but the airlines were miffed because the government had repeatedly said it would adopt a more liberal European Commission proposal, reported Reuters.
Ryanair, which is taking a case to the Irish High Court challenging the legality of the quarantine rules, said the aviation and tourism sectors “cannot afford any further delays or indecision.”

The new “Green List,” which goes into effect on Sept. 21 allows travelers arriving from just seven countries to avoid quarantine: Cyprus, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland.
