Travellers line up for U.S. flights as curbs are lifted for first time

Paul Campbell had waited nearly two years to reunite with his German fiancée at Boston's Logan airport on Monday, the day the United States eased travel restrictions imposed on much of the world since the COVID-19 pandemic began. 'I'm just ecstatic that she's here, I'm happy,' said Campbell, 63, a retired firefighter from Vermont who greeted her with a heart-shaped balloon. 'Our relationship is still thriving even though we've been apart for two years.' At John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, a child held a sign reading, 'Do I look bigger?' as he waited for the first British Airways flight from London's Heathrow. '730 days missed u! Aunty Jill + Uncle Mark,' his sign said.
