Following the latest government advice regarding travel to Mainland Spain, the Balearic and Canary Islands and now the Algarve from the UK, a lot of the airlines have taken the decision to suspend their flights and holiday programmes from 28th July up to and including 16th August 2020.
This is an extremely fast-moving situation, and we will provide any further communications and updates we get regarding this situation as quickly as we can.
However, should you have an affected booking please be assured we will be in touch with you as soon as possible, and in the meantime, should you require any further help or advice then please contact our travel experts in-store as we would be happy to help.
From 27 July, the FCO advises against all non-essential travel to Spain, including the Balearic and Canary Islands, based on the current assessment of COVID-19 risks in the country.
This advice is based on evidence of increases in cases of COVID-19 in several regions, but particularly in Aragon, Navarra and Catalonia (which include the cities of Zaragoza, Pamplona and Barcelona).
The FCO is not advising those already travelling in Spain to leave at this time. Travellers should follow the advice of the local authorities on how best to protect themselves and others, including any measures that they bring in to control the virus.
If you are returning from Spain you will be required to self-isolate on your return to the UK, but the FCO is not advising you to cut short your visit. You should contact your tour operator or airline if you have any questions about your return journey.
