Heads-Up to Our Europe-Bound Travelers <\/strong>\ud83c\udf77\ud83c\udf7a<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re joining us on one of our beercations<\/strong> or other European journeys<\/strong> \u2014 starting this month and into next year \u2014 here\u2019s something important to know before you go.<\/span><\/p>\n Beginning 12 October 2025<\/strong>, the European Union will start introducing a new Entry\/Exit System (EES)<\/strong> at its external borders. The rollout will happen gradually in different countries over about six months, with full implementation by 10 April 2026<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n The EES will record non-EU travellers\u2019 passport details, entry and exit dates, and biometric data (like a quick facial scan and fingerprints). It\u2019s designed to make border crossings smoother in the future, but during the rollout not every border point will have the system active right away.<\/span><\/p>\n That means border checks could take a bit longer at some airports or crossings while the new system gets up and running, so we recommend allowing a little extra time before your flight or tour<\/strong> \u2014 just to be safe.<\/span><\/p>\n You can read more about the new system on the official EU website:<\/span> \n\t<\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/bonbeer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/EU-UK-Airport-copy-1024x682.jpg\")
