Portugal still off UK air bridge list
24-Jul-2020
Portugal remains off the list of the travel corridors that exempt passengers from quarantine on arrival in the United Kingdom, despite the British government having added five countries today.
Estonia, Latvia, Slovakia, Slovenia and the St. Vincent archipelago in the Caribbean were added to the list today by the British Ministry of Transport, following an assessment of the risk of infection with Covid-19.
As of 28 July, people travelling from these countries to England do not need to comply with the required 14-day quarantine, then the rest of the nations (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) must apply the British Government's decision.
The Ministry of Transport adds that the re-evaluation of this list continues to be done every four weeks, but adds that it may introduce "changes weekly (if necessary), to reflect the changing panorama of international health" and impose restrictions if the health situation of a country deteriorates.
