Unclear if any of the existing red list countries are changing to Amber or not...
I suspect Portugal prices are about to go through the roof... Is anyone else shocked Malta didn’t make the green list? It has a high vaccination rate (per 100 people) than the UK, low cases and is an island! BA only added extra flights to Malta the other day too. |
If you travel to a green list rcountry ahead of 17 May with a legally permitted reason for travel, can you return on/after 17 May as a green arrival, even though you were in that country before 17 May? Is it clear that it is only the date of return (inbound) travel that counts?

Having looked at the new regs, as of the 17th of May, unclear as per what would be the case for flying via LHR from an (amber) country, connecting (2 hours in LHR) and heading overseas? Would a simple transit in the UK be subject to any regs, depending on country of departure origin?

I booked flights to Madeira at 16:59 as I was expecting stupid price increase. My expectation was right.

BA only added extra flights to Malta the other day too. Next step, replace the need for two covid tests! its £400/500 for two people to get a test before flying back and a test in the UK. |

I'm not getting the confidence people have in booking Portugal. Portugal still has an entry ban for non-essential travel - that doesn't change just because the UK moves them on a green list.

Funchal and Porto Santo is already OK for UK tourists, under their devolved government. |

But Portugal is going to announce "shortly" the rules that will apply from 16 May, the day before the England changes, and given the EU's recommendation earlier this week, there seems highly likely that they will "White List" the UK from that date.

Judging purely by case rates the biggest omission in Europe from today's list in my opinion is Albania. The current infection rate there is below the UK and Portugal but they have a lower vaccination rate so that's probably why they've been left out. San Marino also has a low case rate but as you can't get there without going through Italy it makes sense that's not on the green list. |
