According to The Local, the European Union has refused to suspend the implementation of its new EES border controls. This decision follows significant pressure from airlines and airport operators, who requested a delay until after the summer period to prevent operational chaos at major holiday destinations.
The EU remains committed to the current schedule for the new border measures, notwithstanding industry warnings about potential traveller delays. No further adjustments to the implementation timeline have been announced by the commission in response to these concerns.
