Hi,just wondering if anyone can recommend a laboratory in Elda where I can do antigen test to fly back to UK.(guessing I will have to book the appointment?and hopefully my broken Spanish will be good enough to communicate 😉 . Fingers crossed I will be traveling my in August, just so I know what I am doing...)
Regards and thank you

At the moment the antigen test is enough for the UK, though by August that may change.
The new requirements in Spain for UK visitors, from tomorrow, is that they either show proof of being fully vaccinated OR provide proof of a negative PCR or Antigen test.
Lucy, sorry I do not know anywhere around Elda where you could get a antigen test but hopefully someone will advise.
Again, by August the requirements could change in either country so best keep an eye on the UK Gov website.

I phoned the day before tbh I got my other ones to fly from UK called breathe assured. I made a mistake I bought 2 antigen tests for day 2 and 8 but there was no reference number to put on the passenger locator form. I had trouble they weren't going to let me on the plane however the woman sorted it out for me as I was so stressed. You need 2 pcr tests for day 2 and 8 they will have reference numbers on them.Im still isolating and they have been out to check. They ring everyday too. You will ne fine 😀
