Greece will use a European Union list of flights from third countries that will be allowed to enter the bloc as a basis for re-opening to international travelers on July 1, but the country won’t allow any direct flights from the U.K. and Sweden until July 15.
“The whole process of opening is ongoing and there will be a constant evaluation of the data,” Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said following a meeting with officials on how Greece will open up again to tourists from July 1.
