Great Rail Journeys chief Peter Liney has slammed the UK government’s "indecision" over the reopening of international travel.

He said the impact of the government's indecision around the return of international travel cannot be underestimated

His comments come following Portugal’s removal from the UK’s green list on 8 June after transport secretary Grant Shapps announced would be relegated to the amber list last Thursday (3 June).

Liney said the impact of the government’s indecision around the return of overseas travel cannot be underestimated on the future of the travel sector. "It is devastating for the travel industry and creating chaos for both customers and businesses alike," he said.
