Anglers Inn International Establishes COVID-19 Testing Program to Satisfy CDC Travel Requirements
COEUR D’ ALENE, Idaho (January 25, 2021) – Billy Chapman, Jr. founder and
owner of Anglers Inn International, has announced the implementation of a COVID-
19 testing program that satisfies CDC International Travel Requirements. The
testing program will allow Anglers Inn customers to board their flights to return
home after enjoying their great angling experience.
“On January 12 th the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) instituted a new
policy requiring all air passengers entering the United States to obtain a negative
COVID-19 test within 72 hours of their flight’s departure to the U.S,” explained
Chapman.
This policy becomes effective on January 26, 2021. Currently there is no testing
requirement to enter Mexico from the U.S.
Chapman further explained: “We understand that many of you still intend to travel
to our properties at Picachos and El Salto and we welcome your presence. In order
to ensure maximum safety and convenience (and so that you will not have to miss
one minute of fishing time) we have arranged with a local laboratory to come to the
lake, swab your nose, and return your results within 24 hours. You will then have
the appropriate documentation to present to the airlines.”
Unlike in much of the United States, this test is not free, but Anglers Inn is absorbing
its cost to lessen the travel impact to anglers.
“The health and safety of our clients and staff remain our number one priority,”
added Chapman. “We never want to put you in a position where you are unsafe or
outside of your comfort zone. Accordingly, if you need to reschedule an upcoming
trip, please call the office and we will accommodate your request. Similarly, we are
happy to answer any questions about the testing process.”
Anglers Inn will continue to enhance their already strict cleaning and hygiene
processes going forward to ensure that all enjoy one another’s company for years to
come.
Sponsors of Anglers Inn International include Abu Garcia, Berkley, Huk,
Hummingbird, Minn Kota, Mossy Oak and St. Croix.
