Green light for overseas holidays from 17 May1 May 2021 07:30
Hi All, just seen the Daily Telegraph, looks like International getting green light next week.
The ban on overseas holidays will end on May 17, the Government is set to announce next week, in the first step to reviving foreign travel.
It will no longer be illegal to go abroad from that date, meaning summer holidays overseas will be allowed, with a traffic light system for countries to be introduced.
The travel traffic light system: what is it and how will it work?
Initially only a "tiny handful" of countries are expected to be on the "green list", however, and everyone – even those who have been vaccinated – will have to take a PCR Covid test after returning to Britain.
Most European countries are expected to be on the "amber list", which will require tests and quarantine on return.
A senior government source told The Telegraph that ministers believe they can "keep tight controls in place at the border while taking a significant step forward on international travel".
I've topped up at 201, this share is going one way next week, I don't think that is down, unless a fresh new curve ball comes in to drag the sentiment down!! GL All!!
