The British Embassy in Peru has confirmed an additional repatriation flight back to the UK.
However, while the charter flight from capital Lima to London is “confirmed”, the embassy does not expect it to operate for “another 10 days”.
No price has yet been confirmed for the flight.
A Hong Kong government charter was due to depart Lima on Friday (3 April) with a stopover in London.
The embassy said it made Britons in Peru aware of the flight, priced at £3,019, but confirmed the UK government charter would likely be cheaper.
