The message comes as the association reports 60% of Brits plan to travel abroad this summer, as well as three in four families.

One of the most important steps for consumers, Abta says, is to check the UK Foreign Office travel advice for the country they’re visiting, in particular this year, as it will be important to know the latest Covid-19 requirements set by that country.

Despite many overseas destinations relaxing or removing their Covid requirements, some of the UK’s most popular holiday destinations, such as Spain and France, still have restrictions in place.

As many holidaymakers will be heading to Europe for the first time since the UK left the European Union, Abta is also reminding holidaymakers of the differences they need to be aware of and prepare for.

This includes checking if there are additional charges to use their mobile phone while abroad, making sure they don’t take any items that contain milk or meat into the EU and being aware that they will need to use the non-EU visitor lanes when passing through passport control.

Graeme Buck, director of communications at ABTA, said this summer is set to be the busiest travel period since the pandemic began.

"It’s especially important that families travelling to Spain or France, where some Covid-19 restrictions are still in place, have read the FCDO travel advice and are clear on the documentation that each member of their family will need to present for entry," he added.
