Is a negative COVID test required for a domestic flight to Newark Liberty International Airport? - American Flag and disposable mask on wooden table

I've been searching for this but haven't found a straight answer.

I have both vaccines, and I'll be traveling to Newark Liberty International Airport next month.

Will EWR airport (or anyone else within the airport, airline, etc..) require a negative COVID test to leave the airport? Is proof of vaccination good enough?



Best Answer

New Jersey doesn't have any special criteria outside of recommendations for domestic travelers

Unvaccinated individuals who do travel should get tested 1-3 days before their trip and 3-5 days after travel. Even if they test negative, the CDC recommends unvaccinated individuals stay home and self-quarantine for 7 days after domestic travel, and for 10 days if they are unable to test.

Fully vaccinated individuals and those who have recovered from COVID-19 in the past 3 months do not need to get tested or self-quarantine after travel. However, the CDC recommends fully vaccinated individuals self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms, and isolate and get tested if they develop symptoms.
