Poland has banned flights from Albania, effective September 2nd. All scheduled flights have been cancelled.

LOT Polish Airlines has organized two charter flights from Tirana to Warsaw on September 5 and 8 for Polish citizens still in Albania. Those who wish to travel are required to contact the airline. Tickets cost €124 (PLN 550).   

The decision comes amidst the relatively high number of daily new COVID-19 cases in Albania. The country has registered 296 deaths and about 10 thousand cases.

 Two weeks ago, Poland barred Albanian citizens from entering the country, in a move that caught the Albanian government by surprise; they said the ban was “unexpected”.
