Re: Turkey on UK Red List
HedgeFund you say those on holiday Trnc will be treated as if returning from Turkey. How else can they get to Uk from here to go home, without doing quarantine. Thanks for any info.

Re: Turkey on UK Red List
Anyone who needs to get back to U.K. they need to do it by 4.00am 12/5/21
If you ever get tired one day of life, take a rest, lean your back on the stone, not people. Cold but safe...

Re: Turkey on UK Red List
Very real problems in doing that. Via the south may be an option but if you didn't come in that way it's a non-starter.

LEAVING CYPRUS VIA THE REPUBLIC
We have been advised by the Consular Department of the British High Commission that persons LEAVING via Larnaca or Paphos airports WILL BE allowed to leave despite having overstayed during the pandemic.
However, at the airport they will be advised by RoC Immigration officers that if they re-enter via Larnaca or Paphos they will be given a 90-day visa and that they MUST leave within that 90-day period OR they WILL BE REFUSED ENTRY to the Republic.
No exceptions!

Re: Turkey on UK Red List
Northern Ireland may be grouped in/as "UK & Northern Ireland" - or maybe not....
Furthermore - ARE there any direct flights Turkey - NI?
Eire does have direct flights - what are Eire's restrictions? Check Eire's government site...
