A delay to after midnight will be a problem, worth taking a backup test...

Thanks.

Israel requires 72 hours.

To leave the country? The CDC says specifically three days not 72 hours. Instead of leaving Monday morning he's now leaving Monday night. Took his PCR on Friday.

You received an email about which flight?  One showing as cancelled or showing as zero availability in all classes?

I got a notice that the flight was cancelled with no options for rebooking.

Does Elal accept PCR done more than 72 hours, but still three days?

PCR now required for outbound as well, unless you have a green passport:

Not sure when this came out but United sent out emails about this a week in advance of tomorrow's flight.

Do you think United just wants to mess with this route as revenge? Why in the world would they issue boarding passes for cancelled flights and not let the passengers work out alternate arrangements?!
