Overseas holidays will not be permitted until at least May 17, Boris Johnson has announced.
Outlining the post-lockdown roadmap in the Commons this afternoon, the Prime Minister explained that current restrictions on international leisure travel will only be eased pending a review in April, led by Transport Secretary Grant Shapps.
Domestic holidays will also be prohibited until April 12 at the earliest, Johnson confirmed. While an initial tranche of wider restrictions will be lifted in the first stage of the plan, which begins next month, domestic holidays will not be permitted until the second stage of the strategy â due to begin in seven weeksâ time, at the earliest.

The pandemic has forced people to think outside the usual fly-and-flop and twin-centre honeymoon box – meaning newlyweds have had to be – and will continue to be – creative with how they honeymoon this year and beyond. Here we round up some of the best trends to have emerged, from road trips around Europe in the style of the 18th-century Grand Tour, to why we re honeymooning like our grandparents.
Joining Debra at the launch webinar is Tamara Lohan MBE, CEO of travel firm Mr & Mrs Smith and a non-executive director at online retail giant Not on The High Street. With a background in marketing for international businesses including Honda, Unilever and Ericsson, she’s an expert in technology, harnessing data and building successful CRM systems for online businesses.
Tamara will be sharing her experience of leading a team through the most difficult conditions to face the travel industry. As well as crisis management, she will be looking at the secrets of innovation, effective leadership and communication.
One of the big advantages of having moved the launch event online is that there’s no limit to the number of staff who can attend from participating businesses. Every member of the team who would benefit can log on to the two-hour event.
