flag Non-EU travelers face up to 4-hour delays at Geneva Airport due to new EU biometric border system rollout.

flag Non-EU travelers, including Australians, are facing delays of up to four hours at Geneva Airport due to the rollout of the European Entry/Exit System (EES), which requires biometric data at border controls. flag The system, being phased in across the Schengen Area, has caused congestion at smaller airports with limited automated gates, while larger hubs like Zurich report shorter waits. flag Similar delays are reported in France, Germany, Italy, and other Schengen countries, exacerbated by peak travel and temporary border checks. flag Full implementation is set for April 10, 2026, and travelers are advised to allow extra time and prepare for longer queues.
