Astounding information as always mate

much appreciated. I just need to know that for a family of four on our ten day break so we need to budget for 4 more tests in Spain before we head for Alicante airport back to the uk

Yes unfortunately so ,hopefully it will change soon ,mentioning of no quarantine if had 2 vaccinations ,so hopefully they will scrap these returning tests as another sham ,at least in England you have a choice which can curtail the prices ,but in Scotland ,no choice

Thank you.

We had our tests for return to the UK at IMED Torrevieja, 40 euros each. If you go there best to make a booking though as there was a long queue without bookings when we turned up (Sunday). With a booking you can just go straight in. The test itself took literally about 2 minutes, result by text and email in about 30 minutes.

Hi folks

just want to know with regards to the whole process of flying for a family of 4

vaccination certificate for adults x2. 2 tests for kids ( no tests required pre departure for adults )

4 tests for everyone in Spain 3 days before we fly back to uk

day 2 tests in uk after return for everyone and no quarantine?

with regards to day 2 do you just need email proof you have them bought them before flying ??

Hi. I'm wondering if you can just buy tests to come home to the UK from Spain & then use NHS testing sites on day 2 & 8. After 19th July I don't see why we can't use NHS tests once we are home 🤷‍♀️
