Travel plans of Brit expats in flux after England, Wales goes into toughest restrictions.
Travel plans of British expatriates residing in the UAE are in flux after stringent new Covid-19 lockdown has come into force in London, parts of east and south-east England, and Wales. According to the BBC, changes for England, announced at a Downing Street briefing on Saturday, will last for two weeks with the first review due on December 30.
While some are reconsidering their upcoming travel plans, a few UAE residents who are currently in London and other parts of the UK for the holiday season are also worried if they can return home in time to return for work if the lockdown extends to after December 30.
