You’re welcome 
This place is all about helping others and maximising value. A while ago I was called a cheapskate for saving someone a few quid on an amex companion voucher, the posts I have since seen them make on money saving are far more morally questionable !!

Did you register it already or will you be registering and doing on the same day? I understand you need to register it to get the certificate...

Took the Chronomics Test to Return kit with me on a recent holiday. You can register the kit just before you do it, the website then walks you through what you have to do, it was very simple. Once you have uploaded the picture the certificate was almost instant, which makes you wonder if they've got some software that looks at the picture and can recognise what the result is. PDF certificate shown on phone at check-in in Arrecife with no problems.

Prices are always high one year in advance. The only people who book paid travel a year in advance have very little flexibility on dates / location.
Wait for 3-6 months and the fares will come down to a more palatable level. Set up Google Flights to monitor the price for you...

say near 350 ish days in advance. I've booked things this far in advance for years for various reasons. I've never had an example of the price coming down after booking, but then again I would always be looking for a decent fare.

If you book through C 19 Testing they send them out more or less straight away in all cases. I've had two arrive within one day.
