Etihad has announced that passengers arriving in Abu Dhabi must now start wearing an electronic wristband to ensure that quarantine rules are being strictly followed to prevent further outbreaks. Passengers are already required to be tested for COVID-19 within 96 hours of their flight, no matter their final destination.

When disembarking at the airport, travelers will go through thermal sensors and be tested for COVID-19. They must then quarantine for 14 days and are required to wear the wristband, which officials are handing out at the airport.
