Air travel restrictions, which are to be eased by the second week of July, will still apply to passengers arriving from Britain. The Cabinet is also to sign off on plans to begin easing air travel restrictions by the second week of July. However, Britain will not have restrictions lifted, despite the fact that Ireland is excluded from Britain's quarantine rules for foreign travellers. It was also noted there have been spikes in a number of EU countries where restrictions have been lifted. It comes as the Dáil's Special Committee on Covid-19 Response will today be warned a resurgence of the virus is "inevitable" as more air travel is permitted.
