Rewarding our patience4 May 2021 09:15
SUMMER holidays in Spain, Greece, France and the US look to be on the cards for Brits as the sunny destinations are set to be added to the "green" travel list by the end of June.
Those desperate to take-off for beach holidays abroad are eagerly awaiting the reveal of which countries they will soon be able to visit without the need to quarantine on their return - but have been urged to be patient before the "big bang" of bookings.
While just a "handful" of countries are due to get the coveted green status from May 17 when the list is announced later this week, a three-weekly review will pave the way for more places to be added.
Holiday hotspot Portugal is on the “cusp” on making the initial list, with an insider saying it would go green “soonish” even if it missed out this time around.
Popular destinations including Spain, Greece and France are pencilled in by Downing Street to be added by the end of June, reports the Telegraph.
