I drove to Canada on Dec 4th (Sat), crossing border at Niagara Falls Rainbow Bridge. Returned to the U.S. on Dec. 6th (Monday).@ilovepugs do you have the border stuff figured out? I will be interested to hear about your experiences since we have a Whistler trip planned. Scuttlebutt here in WA is that a lot of people are getting selected for random testing at the border, but they give you an at home test that you can either do via proctor or at a drugstore when you get to your destination. The rules say you are supposed to quarantine until you get results but I'm confused about that part. It doesn't seem like they are making sure you do that.
24 hours if driving?Thanks @alison wong. They've actually changed the rules again; now it's 24 hours in advance for the test, and I think the random testing at the border is new (or if not new, much expanded). I'm so curious as to the instructions that come with the random testing! How long do we need to quarantine at our destination? What if we are positive?
Oh, you are correct about the 72 hours. I was reading about someone flying to Seattle then driving to Canada and they needed it within 24 hours, but that's because they flew before they drove.24 hours if driving?
Last time I checked (after Thanksgiving), it is 24 hours if flying, 72 hours if driving.
Perhaps the rules are changed again due to Omicron.
That's why we decided to cancel our WB trip coming season, too many variables and uncertainties. We decided to go to Tahoe instead.
One main reason is, what if we need to get tested before returning to the U.S. I would not know where to go in WB to get tested.... Plus at that time when I did my research for testing in Canada, it was $300 CDN (?). That was too expensive.
Yeah, too bad. But if she comes later I can maybe meet up. I'm busy this Friday and couldn't have gone to Tremblant that day. Some friends have gone today and I think it would be lovely, but I was (am) busy.So sorry @ilovepugs, but I don't blame you. Not going myself.
We do want to reschedule our trip for sometime in January!Yeah, too bad. But if she comes later I can maybe meet up. I'm busy this Friday and couldn't have gone to Tremblant that day. Some friends have gone today and I think it would be lovely, but I was (am) busy.
