מה קרה
The European Entry/Exit System, launched in April to enhance border security across 29 Schengen countries, has caused long delays and technical issues at major airports, frustrating travelers including Israelis. Despite calls to suspend it during peak summer travel, the EU rejected the request, citing exit processing concerns. Experts advise arriving early and planning longer connections due to biometric screening requirements. The system aims to track visitors better and prevent overstays but faces operational challenges and has delayed related visa programs.
