The Spanish are generally pretty easy going, so I would not worry unduly if you have them on your phone.

Incase anyone made the c*ck up that I made and booked an RAT instead of LAMP for Spain from Collinson at the aiport, I wouldn't bother trying to email them to sort it, as I haven't heard back. It is very easy just to login, cancel your RAT and then book the LAMP. Sadly it's twice the price, but with the BA discount, i'm not too annoyed by £67 each. Refund for orginal test supposedly coming in 7-14 days.
Im still kicking myself that I didn’t know about the BA 20% discount when I booked my 5 day TTR through them.

Departing Glasgow the check-in agent thanks us for being so organised with paperwork for heading to PMI via LHR.
Had to use desks as despite uploading paperwork on the app was never verified and therefore no OLCI.
PMI had waits of 90minutes for immigration with 4 officers checking all passports. Once at the front process was 60seconds but just the volume of people. One plus was at least luggage beat us to the belt ( a rarity at PMI).

Is that site legit ?
You put in your vaccination details from any country if fully vaccinated and no need for a test?

"If you do not have a EU Digital COVID Certificate, do not worry, in section 4. Health Questionnaire, of the form, you can enter the details of the supporting document (vaccination/test/COVID-19 recovery) that you have, and if everything is correct you will obtain a QR that will be identified as DOCUMENTARY CONTROL."

I booked yesterday an Avios redemption for a long weekend early September in IBZ departing from LCY, but somehow expect the Balearics to be on Amber by then.
Happy to accept a rebooking to a LHR departure (the airport is much closer to my home but I did not find suitable Avios availability for my dates)

Sorry to ask, does anyone know if the actual PCR Test to fly to Spain has to be within 48 hours of arrival, or is it the result certificate, ie when it is emailed to you? And are the Spanish authorities precise on the timing, e.g. if you're an hour or two over, will they still accept the result? Struggling with Boots at the moment who say they'll email the result 'within 48 hours'
