Holidays are banned, and even essential travel comes with a whole heap of severe restrictions, including a requirement to take a Covid test before you return to the UK and two after you get home, where you must isolate for 10 days. It’s as if we’re suddenly living in the Soviet Union.
That could change on May 17, however, the date when – according to the lockdown exit strategy – overseas trips could be allowed again. How generous.

France eases travel for UK and six other countriesEurope 2021-03-12, by Editor Comments Off 3
France is to ease restrictions on travel to and from seven countries outside the EU, including the UK.
The foreign ministry said a “compelling reason” was no longer needed for travel to Australia, Israel, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, New Zealand and Britain.
All non-essential travel was banned by the French government on 31 January as it tried to curb the spread of Covid-19 variants, including the UK variant.
Safety measures remain in place for travellers.
All passengers arriving in France will still need to provide a negative Covid-19 test result issued less than 72 hours before they travel, the ministry said.
