The mayor of Cartagena, William Dau Chamat, announced on Tuesday that on September 21 international flights in Colombia will resume and that precisely that city is entering the first phase of reactivation of this air operation.
"National flights are already arriving, and on September 21 international flights begin to arrive. We received the notification from the president, Iván Duque, and although we still do not have the details, we will communicate and review with the management of the Rafael Núńez International Airport, the airlines and scheduled flights, "said the Cartagena president.
It may interest you: These are the three new airports that will open on September 21.
Cartagena was the first city in the country to request authorization for domestic flights.
"We show that we are prepared for this, as has been recognized by all the authorities at the national level, and that is why they authorize us to take this step. We know that Cartagena, if it is not the first city, it will be among the first to receive international flights ", said the president of Cartagena.
Regarding biosecurity measures, Dau emphasized that all citizens are responsible for their care and gradually reactivate the economy.
"We are ready to receive tourists from any country who bring foreign currency to spend here in Cartagena, what interests me is that the passengers are well cared for, that they do not get infected here, or that they infect ours. At this point it is important that they bring their foreign exchange, to stimulate the economy of the city and the people of Cartagena who need it so much ", he added.
Likewise, he informed that at the end of last week the beach protocol that is to be reactivated in a pilot plan was ready, which includes two specific beaches: Bocagrande and Playa Azul La Boquilla.
"We are working at full speed, we have already defined the entry points, demarcation, among others. Much progress has been made, we hope to be able to reactivate by the first of October at the latest."
See also: Only two beaches will be part of the pilot plan to reopen to tourists in Cartagena.
Dau Chamat assured that in both the protocols of distancing, time control will be fulfilled and warned that, "what we do not want is to return to how the beaches were before, the bathers besieged by the vendors, to avoid this, what we will have will be zones special places where beach visitors can come to purchase the specific products or services they require."

Posts: 582The US will be getting rid of Covid testing for international arrivals, but individual states can still impose quarantines on anyone arriving into the state regardless if country of origin. That will be enough for yes a bilateral agreement that is in the works right now.

I am comparing what happened in Mexico with Corona with what it was like before. In the past, I would have hotel concierges bring women to my room in the past. Now, those same hotels have freaked out with Covid. Comparing what is going on in Thailand now with what is going on now in Mexico and what will be happening in Colombia is apples to oranges.
I have no clue what the CTG apartment scene is like, but I know in Mexico, bringing in a woman not on the guest list in multiple hotels was not allowed and before Covid it was. Hotels are tracking people, and I would think that the government will force them to. Maybe you can get by seeing some multiple women with some cheaper ones where the women do not pass the front desk.
As for the VAT, I have never paid it when I have had a Colombian guest in a hotel. Maybe it was just lucky, but I have not had to.

Posts: 4034I'm not sure what you mean by "the states". In any case, whether you are referring to the United States, to Colombia, or any other country, the bilateral agreement would cover departures and arrivals between Colombia and another country, including the so-called "biosecurity measures". Those measures may or may not include quarantines. In spite of very definitive statements on this website and others, no such measures have been announced by the Colombian government. That may yet happen but it has not happened yet. I appreciate that it is frustrating and tedious to deal with facts but in the end it saves inconvenience and further frustration. I speculate as much as anyone but I make a point to say I am speculating when I don't know the facts.

Posts: 4034Statements by the President and the Minister of Transportation are also referenced in the article. The President announced last month that pilot test flights are authorized to resume as of September 1. The Minister of Transportation stated that no dates are yet confirmed. The Mayor or Cartagena announced September 21 but also said it depends on agreement with other countries. Because it is clickbait, the headline does not mention any of these details.
