Re: Good news re flying to PT
Has anyone flown into Faro yet? Just wondering if it will be like the experience of "santaanita" above.

Yes, flew Manchester to Faro today, Jet2. Manchester security took half an hour in queue as usual. Arrival at Faro along with other flights so a bit slow but not too bad, security inspected PLF and Vaccinations certs before we got to manual passport control, electronic readers not in use. Only problem was taxi driver farted all the way to the airport.

Re: Good news re flying to PT
I travelled MAN/FAO with Jet2 this morning. Check-in was swift and only Passports were requested to be checked. Agent presumed that we were vaccinated and simply asked if we were double or triple jabbed. Boarding passes were marked accordingly. Security went swiftly too; only 20 minutes and that included having the contents of one of the bags examined and tested. At the gate, agents were checking those passengers who had not had their docs checked at check-in. Passports and boarding passes were checked at the gate and upon boarding the aircraft the passes were checked again.
A one hour delay then ensued apparently due to a passenger being denied boarding at the gate; he had a bag in the hold that needed to be offloaded. Gate staff must have spotted something that check-in had not!! Made some time up during the flight and arrived at FAO 35 minutes late. Security was checking vaccination certificates immediately before passport control. PLF’s were not asked for nor checked. Immigration was swift as was baggage reclaim. All this compensated for the initial delay and we were back on schedule. |

I’m flying Jet2 from Stanstead to Faro next Monday. Although you said the PLF was not checked on arrival the airline is stating it needs to be filled in. Is this just a digi form on your phone or did you also print it out? I’m double vacced and have the latest cert already printed out. Thanks, Richard

I believe the PLF is required by the PT authorities and ought to be checked on departure and again upon arrival although in my case it was not. Here is the link to complete one and submit it within 4 days before arrival in PT https://portugalcleanandsafe.pt/en/p...r-locator-card. You will then receive an email attaching a PDF copy in Portuguese and English. It will be password protected with your Passport number and you can either print it off or keep it on your phone to show electronically, if asked.

Our PLFs were checked at Manchester, along with vaccination certificates and again at Faro by security staff in queue before reaching passport control. We always print everything, quicker to check than phones which slow everyone down.
