BBC World Service - World Business Report, US reopens to European travellers

The US has restricted UK and EU arrivals since the beginning of the pandemic

Airlines in Europe are hoping for a surge in bookings from people who want to travel to the United States, as the country is reopening its borders from Monday, as long as they have been vaccinated against Covid 19. US aviation consultant Michael J Boyd and UK travel agent Beneditta McManus give us their perspectives on the news. China's State Grid company has warned of shortages of electricity this winter. Our regular contributor Michael Hughes analyses what this could mean for China, as well as the global economy.  Nick Mabey, chief executive of the climate change think tank E3G, gives us a breakdown of what's happened at the first week of the COP26 climate conference, and what we can expect in week two. And a US court has blocked President Joe Biden's efforts to mandate that American companies with more than 100 staff ensure employees are vaccinated against Covid-19. US labour lawyer Benjamin Noren explains the case. (Image: a sign at JFK international airport in New York City. Credit: Ramin Talaie/Getty Images)
