      The States Restricting Travel

      1/18
      As health experts continue to advise against non-essential travel amid the surge in coronavirus cases across the country, some states have implemented travel restrictions and testing and quarantining requirements for visitors in hopes of slowing the spread of COVID-19. Here's a breakdown of the states with restrictions in place heading into the final month of 2020.

      Alaska

      2/18
      Visitors to Alaska who want to avoid 14 days in quarantine will need to take a molecular-based COVID-19 test within 72 hours of their departure and upload their negative results into the Alaska Travel Portal. Travelers can also test upon arrival for $250 per test but will have to quarantine at their own expense until their results come back.

      California

      3/18
      While there are no statewide restrictions in California, Santa Clara County, which includes San Jose, has implemented mandatory quarantine for those traveling into the region from more than 150 miles away. With a new stay-at-home order likely on the way, travelers to California should continue to monitor the latest restrictions in their destination.

Currently, only residents of New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Hawaii are exempt.

As of November 24, travelers must have their negative COVID-19 test results in hand prior to departure to avoid self-isolation. If the results aren't available before boarding the final leg of the trip, the traveler must quarantine for 14 days or the length of the stay, whichever is shorter.

      What's more, beginning December 2, Kauai will temporarily pause its participation in the program, requiring incoming trans-pacific and inter-county travelers to self-quarantine for 14 days.
