Google Adds Covid-19 Information to Travel Searches

Google is adding Covid-19 related information to travel searches on the platform

Google is adding Covid-19 related information to travel searches on the platform. This means holidaymakers can find out what the quarantine or vaccination requirements are for their destination.

Now, a Google search for flights, hotels, or things to do will now also bring up results for any COVID-19-related travel advisories or restrictions at that destination.

Google has added additional travel restriction details, including whether quarantine is required or if you have to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test.

Users can also choose to receive updates about when restrictions are lifted or added for a given destination.
