  Oh well, I feel a bit better now about the lockdown- I would have needed to cancel my trip to Sweden anyway.

  For those interested in The Canaries, the implementation of the law requiring a test will be delayed until atleast the 23rd of November.

  You will also be able to get a test on arrival for ~€30 rather than spending ~£150 on a test in the UK, if you’re willing to quarantine at your accommodation until you get the results.

    Thank you, that’s good to hear. Do you have a link for further information? We are currently in the Canaries but I wouldn’t mind returning over Christmas if the tests are cheap.

    Alba, can you give us a link for that please. Have just done a search of usual sources & can’t find a reference to any change regarding starting date ?

    I can’t see this info anywhere. Can you confirm please?

    That’s good. news.
    Although Easyjet have cancelled my flight to lanzarote on 21st from Edi -( apparently due to the England travel restrictions ???) I haven’t cancelled my hotel or return Ryanair flight yet.
    If the covid test was in place for my arrival , I wouldn’t be going

    I would love a link. Flying there on the 18th (from Germany) and had already booked a Covid test for beforehand. Might fly back to the UK from there and call my time in Tenerife quarantine. 🙂

  So I think that just leaves Gibraltar as the only place with no restrictions in either direction…..

  • Richard M says:

    5 Nov5 November 18:05

    Oh yes and mainland Greece

    • Nick says:

      But mainland Greece is effectively closed once you get there. From this weekend you’ll need special permission (by SMS) to leave your place of residence.

    and yet, easyjet just cancelled a bunch of flights to Gibraltar. Got the cancellation notification for xmas flights this afternoon.

  Someone has a sense of humour. I think I may feel safer in Germany and/or Sweden than anywhere in the UK at the current time.

  Currently in Sweden. Life feels normal here, except museum closures in Stockholm.

  Not fussed about self isolating on our return. Expected it but we’re glad to finally get out sightseeing, stay in a decent hotel and eat great food!

  Just seen on BBC that DENMARK is now on the quarantine on return list and applies from 04.30 FRIDAY (today) Morning.

  Decision described as ‘urgent’ and made at 01.30 Friday morning
