Why will ETIAS add some motivation for dual US/EU citizens not to use their US passports to fly to the EU?
I read on this answer by phoog:
I routinely use different passports for different flights on the same booking (a US passport and an EU passport) because I am typically flying between the US and the EU. Once ETIAS goes into operation, this will likely become even more common, as there will be additional motivation for dual US/EU citizens not to use their US passports to fly to the EU.
Why will ETIAS add some motivation for dual US/EU citizens not to use their US passports to fly to the EU?
ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorization System. It is a completely electronic system which allows and keeps track of visitors from countries who do not need a visa to enter the Schengen Zone. From the end of 2022, all US citizens traveling to Europe for short-term stays will be obliged to have an ETIAS visa waiver with them before their trip.

Do I need ETIAS if I have dual citizenship?
American citizens with dual citizenship can obtain ETIAS, unless they are holders of a European passport (of a Schengen member country), in which case, they will not be required to have a valid ETIAS upon arrival in Europe. It should be noted that Ireland and the United Kingdom are not part of the ETIAS program.Do I need an ETIAS in 2021?
This is not a visa. ETIAS is a travel authorization for visa-free visitors, similar to the U.S. Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). \u201cETIAS is not a visa, it is a visa waiver. Travelers currently visiting European member countries visa-free, will require an ETIAS from 2023 onwards.Is it possible to have dual residency in the US and a European country?
Individuals with dual citizenship enjoy the same rights and have the same responsibilities as the citizens of each of the two nations. The US allows its citizens to hold dual nationality with other nations, but this is not the case for all countries.Your EU citizenship rights
