A decree of February 12 eased the constraints imposed on travelers coming from or going to Reunion. The obligation to present a negative test to board a flight to mainland France is thus repealed for vaccinated passengers.. Likewise, travel restrictions to Mauritius and South Africa are lifted. It is no longer necessary to have a compelling reason to fly to Plaisance or Johannesburg. This measure was put in place at the end of 2021 with the aim of slowing the spread of the Omicron variant on the island.. It was less and less understandable since this variant had supplanted all the others in Reunion. February 7, Mauritius and South Africa had been reclassified by France as “orange” destinations, instead of “red”, making the difference in treatment imposed on Reunion travelers even more abnormal.
