All travel corridors for people arriving in England are suspended.
Following the government's announcement of a new lockdown, international travel is only permitted for essential reasons.
We will update the below details for non-essential travel when it is allowed to resume.
Which operators are currently flying from East Midlands Airport?
Where can I go on holiday now?
Will I need to self-isolate when I arrive at my destination?
Will I need to self-isolate when I return?
What health checks or forms will I need to complete?
What should I do if I believe I may have COVID-19 symptoms?
What if I am returning to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland?
Over the last few weeks more and more flights have started to resume operations. Here is the latest list of what’s to come and what’s already started.
On 4th July the UK government lifted restrictions on non-essential travel to certain countries. These countries have been assessed as not presenting an unacceptably high risk to British people travelling abroad.
Destinations served by flights from East Midlands Airport are as follows. Please note, these are subject to change.
Bulgaria
Greece and Greek Islands
Rep. of Ireland
UK domestic and Channel Islands
While the countries listed above are deemed to not be an unnecessarily high risk for British travellers, each country will have different rules about travelling. Please refer to this list and choose your destination from the list to see what will be required when you arrive.
“Travel corridors” are being introduced from 10th July 2020. If you are returning to England from one of the “travel corridor” countries and you have not visited or stopped in any other country or territory in the preceding 14 days, you will not be required to self-isolate when you return.
Countries in the travel corridor are:
(This list may be added to over the coming days following further discussions between the UK and international partners.)
However, if you travel to any countries outside of the travel corridor, you will be required to self-isolate for 14 days on your return to England. If you have travelled back via a country on the travel corridors list, the time spent here counts towards your 14 days of self-isolation.
Before your arrival back into the UK, you will need to complete a passenger locator form. This can be completed 48 hours before your arrival back in the UK. You will need to show a copy of your form when you arrive at the UK border, either by printing it or showing it on a device. This information will be used by the government to contact you if someone you travelled with develops COVID-19 symptoms.
If you believe you have COVID-19 symptoms, do not travel. If you develop symptoms while travelling, please inform airport or cabin staff.
These rules only apply to arrivals in England. Information for travel into Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will be published by the Devolved Administrations.
