As of the 12th January 2009 all passengers travelling to the United States of America or transiting through will be required to obtain an electronic travel authorisation prior to boarding a carrier to travel by air or sea to the USA under the Visa Waiver program. This system has been mandated by US Government legislation, following 9/11.
