Biden’s White House revealed in September that the US would reopen its borders to fully vaccinated arrivals from the UK and EU in early November. But officials did not give a firm date for the reopening at the time.

The US president is believed to be looking at 8 November as the date to reopen the transatlantic market, according to a report by The Telegraph. The border has been closed since early 2020 when the pandemic took hold.
