Demand for travel to Europe from markets like the US and Japan remains soft, but Ukraine is not affecting plans, new research has found.

Arrivals will undertake PCR tests on a voluntary basis and all positive samples will be sent for sequencing

Data from the European Travel Commission (ETC) and Eurail show improved optimism compared with last year, but with reduced demand from Brazil, Canada, China, Japan, Russia, and the US for travel to Europe in May-August.

The trends are important as demand from these large markets determines the supply of flights to and from the UK and other European countries.
