The highly contested EU Entry/Exit System is facing renewed pressure after the expiry of emergency measures that aimed to prevent border chaos. The system, which has experienced multiple postponements, continues to generate concerns among travel sector operators.
Major sector operators are warning of the risk of long queues at border controls and the possibility of passengers missing flights due to delays. These warnings come at a time when the temporary measures that allowed for managing the flow of travelers are no longer in effect.
The EES, designed to automatically register entries and exits of third-country citizens in the EU, has been facing multiple delays in its implementation, generating frustration among both authorities and tourism sector professionals.
