When travel finally resumes under the government’s recently announced traffic light system, all arrivals in England and Wales will have to test negative for Covid-19 prior to their return.
Those arriving from "green list" countries will have to take a "gold standard" PCR test on the second day of their return, which typically cost in excess of £100.
Arrivals from "amber" and "red list" countries will have to take an additional PCR test on the eighth day or their return, as well as self-isolate for 10 days.
