Work on possible "air bridges" continuing, says UK PM's spokesman

Tue, 09th Jun 2020 13:04

LONDON, June 9 (Reuters) - Work is continuing on whether to
introduce "air bridges" between countries after Britain began a
14-day quarantine on travellers arriving in the country, a
spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Tuesday.

"The reports are that there was a very high level of
compliance at the border yesterday," the spokesman said of the
quarantine, adding no fines had been issued and there were no
reports of anyone refusing to provide their details when asked.

Asked about air bridges being introduced this month, the
spokesman added: "Work on future options, which includes air
bridges or safe travel corridors, is ongoing." He offered no
firm dates or a list of countries that were being approached.
