New York stopped using the Tri-State Area travel advisory in early November after Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced a new policy.
Under the new policy, visitors can opt out of the 14-day quarantine if they test negative for the coronavirus 72 hours before traveling to New York, quarantine for three days and then test negative for COVID-19 a second time.
Connecticut is still using the Tri-State Area travel advisory.
