Barrhead Travel is predicting that October could be an "extremely busy month" for departures if Covid-19 restrictions permit.

Barrhead president, Jacqueline Dobson, said the month would be a "crucial part of recovery" ahead of the winter period.

Her comments come following Thursday’s (26 August) traffic light update, which saw Canada, Denmark and Switzerland among the seven destinations to move from amber to green, with Thailand and Montenegro being added to the red list.

Although Dobson welcomed the recent additions, she further urged the government to address "much more pressing matters" regarding overseas travel "sooner rather than later".
