JetBlue sent this mail to its travelers. Of course, the new covid strain may necessitate changes.
Effective November 8, 2021, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has issued updated requirements for air travel into the U.S.
U.S. Citizens/Legal Residents
Fully vaccinated U.S. Citizens, U.S. Nationals, Lawful Permanent Residents, and customers traveling to the U.S. on an immigrant visa must provide A) proof of full vaccination with an approved vaccine, and B) a negative PCR or antigen viral test taken no more than 3 calendar days before departure, or proof of recovery from COVID-19 during the past 90 days.
Unvaccinated U.S. Citizens, U.S. Nationals, Lawful Permanent Residents, and customers traveling to the U.S. on an immigrant visa must A) provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR or antigen viral test taken no more than 1 calendar day before departure, and B) attest that they will take another test within 3-5 days post-arrival in addition to following self-quarantine requirements.
Non-U.S. Citizens
Non-U.S. Citizens Travelling on Nonimmigrant Visas who are 18 years or older are required to be fully vaccinated, unless the traveler meets one of the exceptions. These travelers must also provide proof of recovery from COVID-19 or a negative PCR or antigen viral test taken no more than 3 calendar days before departure.
Children
Children 2-17 years are required to show proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR or antigen viral test within 3 calendar days of departure if traveling with a fully vaccinated adult, or within 1 calendar day of departure if traveling alone or with an unvaccinated adult.
Children under 2 years of age are exempt from all vaccination and testing requirements.
In addition, all travelers entering the U.S. must complete an attestation form and provide the required contact tracing information. For more details on requirements to enter the U.S., please visit the CDC’s Travel Assessment page.
If you need further assistance, feel free to contact us. We look forward to welcoming you on board soon.

Since a negative covid antigen test is now a requirement for reentry into the U.S., I’d like to know how and where to get it in January while we’re staying at Hotel Club Akumal Caribe. Thanks!
There are 3 places in Akumal Pueblo that do testing. Dr. Fabio even comes to your hotel. Check with the reception desk and they will give you contact information.
