Can anyone tell me if it’s still ok to fly from Alicante to UK (Scotland) I’m due to fly back on the 31st.

I know there are restrictions coming from UK, but can’t seem to find anything to confirm , the other way.

Hello Christina92. I don't know for sure but I would be willing to bet incoming flights from those countries not allowing outbound flights from the UK are also cancelled. A couple of reasons:-

1. Flight crew would technically not be allowed to fly back out

2. Planes landing would not be allowed to return so causing a huge jam of planes in UK airports

3. No airline would want to lose access to planes (those parked up in the UK) so they'll just not run flights to the UK and use the planes on other routes where they can still sell tickets to.

Sorry but I think you're probably out of luck but you should still check for definite with the airline (Easyjet, Ryanair?)

If your habitual residence is in the UK you should be allowed to return, however I would suggest your check with your airline.
