TITIMAC from UK to Philippines
I hope this is the right place to answer this.
Unfortunately, an urgent family matter has me scrambling to travel from Philippines to UK and then to return about 2 weeks later to then make the trip again about a week after that with more family in tow.
On the return from the UK to the Philippines I believe there are COVID vaccination requirements or PCR testing in lieu of this.
Is anyone able to tell me what requirements TITIMAC (the system check-in agents) would see for a British citizen going from UK to Philippines who would be considered unvaccinated?
Many thanks.

https://www.traveldoc.aero/ has details. It suggests that if vaccinated you only need to fill out a health form. If not fully vaccinated then it states "professionally administered negative antigen test result obtained within 24 hours prior to departure required"

I tend to recommend the United website, since it gets you fairly close to what the BA agent sees. The URL can bounce around a bit so it may need a Google search on "United Timatic documents" to give the current locaiton.

My reading of a dummy entry is that you are not required to be vaccinated but you may then need to be tested for COVID-19 before or just after arrival. If vaccinated you wouldn't need to worry about that (nor the scratchy heads of agents staring at the screen). The transit location may or may not have other requirements. I would print this out just in case.
