Chilean Borders Reopens To International Tourists

Chile has reopened its borders to international visitors, ending an eight-month travel ban imposed by the government.

President Sebastián Piñera said it was part of a step-by-step plan for opening up the country.

International travelers can now fly into the capital, Santiago, but must show a recent negative coronavirus test and agree to be tracked for two weeks via an app.

Local restrictions are still in place and Chile will remain under a night-time curfew until mid-December.
