It's interesting how different places have different policies...

Getting into the UK was a pain:
1 - Rapid test before getting on the plane
2 - Book day-2 test and pay for said test before getting on plane
3 - Upload photo of CDC vax card, pre-departure test results, and reference number for booked day-2 test to an app British Airways recognizes that allows you to simply scan and move onto regular security.

But..... Virtually no masks (aside from sometimes on the Tube) once I got into London. What was even funnier is it was my first time to the UK, and the process of getting off the airplane and out the door for Americans was easier than the covid pre-reqs.

Going to Paris on Oct 1.....
No testing requirements.
But.... Had to get a QR health pass code from the French Gov't (FYI* - You can get this online before you depart - There's a site you can fill out a form and it's actually pretty fast and easy - You get a code in 30 minutes).
However, Sounds like you need to scan that code everywhere you go in France.

Very interesting to experience these different approaches.
