Entry restrictions
Bermuda has lifted its previous travel ban, meaning all travelers may enter the territory starting from July 1.
Entry requirements
All travelers entering Bermuda, whether visitors or residents, must complete the Bermuda travel authorization process online which gathers important information for the island’s health and immigration officials; a $75 fee is required, which includes the cost of COVID-19 testing in Bermuda.
Travelers must have a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 PCR test issued within 5 days prior to departure. Children under the age of 10 are exempt from presenting a COVID-19 PCR test result.
Bermudian residents are permitted to travel without such a test. However, they will now need to pay $300 for a test upon arrival in Bermuda if they have not received a negative test before travel.
Airline crew who stay more than 24 hour must have a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 PCR test issued within 7 days prior to departure.
The COVID-19 PCR test cannot be an antigen, antibody or rapid test. It must be a PCR test.
Quarantine requirements
Travelers age 10 years and older are subject to a PCR test on arrival and quarantine until test results are ready.
Residents who are unable to self isolate at home will also be required to stay in a specified hotel until the results of their day 8 COVID test are confirmed.
From December 8, all travelers to Bermuda are now required to wear a Traveler Wristband for the first 14 days of their stay. Removal of the wristband is not permitted and can result in a fine of USD 500 and home quarantining with an electronic monitoring bracelet. Travelers who do not wish to wear the Traveler Wristband will quarantine at their accommodation for 14 days.
Residents (including work permit holders) who do not have a pre-departure negative PCR COVID-19 test result must quarantine for eight days after arrival. They will not be tested on day four, but they will be tested on day eight and will be released from quarantine with a day eight negative results. If a traveler take an RT-PCR COVID-19 test before departure and receive a negative result during the first four days in Bermuda, they will be released from quarantine. They will still have to test on day 4, day 8, and day 14. The location and time of each of their tests will automatically be booked for them. They will receive email reminders 24 hours before each test
After a negative test result, travelers must take their own temperature twice per day and report via an online application/portal. They must also take additional COVID-19 tests, administered on Day 4, Day 8 and Day 14 at easily accessible pop-up testing centers around the island.
Visitors should acquire health insurance covering potential positive COVID-19 diagnosis while in Bermuda. Visitors without coverage will be responsible for all health and accommodation costs related to a positive COVID-19 diagnosis while in Bermuda.
Airline crew who stay for a maximum of 24 hours are subject to quarantine in a hotel until their next flight.

Cons: "We were asked to board then had to sit for an hour while they did system checks in the heat.

Why didn't they just leave us in the terminal until everything was ready for us?"
Pros: "not much"
Cons: "They overbooked every flight of the day (total of 4) and offered us no solution except what as standby and try to get on next days flight.

Cons: ".."
Pros: "There were several empty seats on the flight, and Evelyne was very helpful in reseating me to a seat where I had enough room to use the in-flight wifi and work a full, productive day (without a seat in front of me obstructing the use of my laptop). She's the epitome of customer service."
Pros: "."
Cons: "."
Cons: "food"
Pros: "Efficient checkin. Left on time."
Cons: "my first flight was delayed by 4 hours so I automatically missed my connection. i called american to reschedule my flight for the next day in order to spend the night at my house and not have ro ask for hotel, they said no problem. when I go to she counter to explain they said that they would put me on a later flight and that they where sure I would make it. when I arrived miami I had missed my connection and they did NOT cover the hotel expenses they rebooked me for the next day at 5pm. no food no hotel no nothing. the next day I arrived at the airport counter the people at the american airline's counter did not want to let me thorugh because I had a one way ticket... after explaining for over 25 minutes they let me go.... the miami gloght to Bermuda then was also delayed for a total of 2 hours and they changed gates 8 times from one end to thw other and so on.... the worst service ever........"
Pros: "Got me home safely"
Cons: "Boarded us late. Got us to the runway, realized they didn't have the paperwork they needed and returned to gate. Swapped out a crew member whilst they were there. Lost place in the queue and so we ended up about an hour and a half late. Lots of excuses but don't recall hearing an "I'm sorry for the delay"."
Pros: "I loved how sweet the crew was. I loved the movie selection."
Cons: "The seat was completely uncomfortable. My feet are swollen and my back hurts still."
Pros: "The flight crew was exetrmely helpful"
Cons: "Even for a more room seat it was a bit tight"
Cons: "The flight attendant chastised my husband loudly when doing a pre check before take off. She reached over and yanked his charger our of the socket and stood over him and reprimanded him for not being on airplane mode. The passengers in front were turning around while the passengers behind were laughing. It was excessive and inappropriate. The passengers behind him had tray tables down and video games out and when she addressed them it was in a respectful manner, but when addressing my husband, it was disrespectful and unprofessional. Seemed to be discrimination as she did not treat any other passengers like this. I wish I would have captured this on video to share with American Airlines as I do not think they would condone her behavior. Her name was Marlene and she needs additional training regarding customer service."
Pros: "Clean"
Cons: "Crew didn't smile much."
