Family from Toronto is coming to south Florida to visit for Pesach. Grateful for any input on proposed itinerary/Covid planning, particularly contingency plans for getting from Buffalo over the border into Canada. All relevant parties have been vaccinated.
- Thursday March 18, within 72 hours of departure: Obtain negative PCR COVID test result in Toronto.
-Sunday March 21: Fly YYZ-FLL non-stop: With a negative covid test, I would not anticipate any issues for Canadian citizens at CBP in YYZ, and certainly not on arrival in FLL.
-Last day of chol-hamoed, Friday April 2: obtain negative PCR test result in Miami
-Monday April 5: Fly non-stop FLL-BUF: I do not anticipate any issues on arrival into New York
- April 5: Rent rental car at Buffalo from National. This entailed a three day minimum reservation to get a one-way car rental to YYZ and many agencies were blocking them entirely. I see National is now sold out and am concerned that the reservation may not be honored if National is sold out or decides it doesn't want to see another car disappear into Canada (with no demand for rentals in the opposite direction to bring them back to U.S.). Any first hand experience would be much appreciated.
- April 5: Cross land border into Canada, obtain 2 PCR test kits at border for immediate use and for 14 days later and quarantine at home for 14 days following arrival.
-April 19 - Take second PCR test and leave quarrantine.
