That is really helpful thank you! We are flying back from Spain spending 1 night in uk hotel and flying out to Cyprus next day so not physically here for day 2 test. We are fully vaccinated uk residents. Has anyone done similar please and if so did you take test on arrival at airport ...

...or just booked day 2 test for PLF code but not take it? Many thanks as getting confused what should do

Hi Suzanne

what you describe sounds more like transiting through the UK, take a look at the guidelines on Gov.UK.

Even though you are staying in a hotel overnight you would be in transit so you might be able to avoid having to do any test in the UK.
