While the government travel advice remains as avoid non-essential travel and even though some destinations are included in the Green List of destinations, we are working with all our customers to help them with their holiday plans, so please be patient we will be in contact with you.
The safety and wellbeing of our customers will always remain our top priority.
The Green list – things to know
- Destinations will be updated by the Government at any time
- Countries can come off the green list if they do not meet the criteria set out by government
- People returning from a Green List country, do not have to self-quarantine, however they are asked to restrict their movements
- If you book a holiday to a green list destination and should it come off the green list while you are there or before you are due to travel – we will contact you and offer assistance
- Please refer to the following link for an up to date list of countries included in the Green List
Government advice for countries included in the Green List is currently to avoid non essential travel, however you may still travel if wish to do so. We will be contacting all customers regardless of the destination they are travelling to and will discuss what options you have.
I am booked to travel to a destination that is not included in the Green List?We will contact you and discuss your options as you would be travelling against government advice. Travel Insurance may not cover you, so it is essential that you check your travel insurance policy.
I am due to travel from September onwardsA lot of flights are operating albeit on a reduced frequency for September and beyond. If you are due to travel in September we will contact you and discuss all options with you. We will be contacting people in order of travel date, so bear with us we will get to you.
We are prioritising all rebooking’s based on travel date.
