Easter is for many Austrians the first opportunity to go on vacation, to take a vacation. This year not only because of the entry restrictions of other countries, but also because because Austria has been issued travel travel warnings of the highest level 6 for most countries.

This means strict conditions such as a health certificate and a ten-day home quarantine. The State Department advises against all non-essential foreign travel.
