The new head of British Airways said that those who have been vaccinated against covid-19 should be able to travel without restrictions.
He added that the same should apply to those who have not been vaccinated if they have a negative test, explaining the company’s plans to restart travel a month before the British government finalizes its recommendations.
London has announced that unnecessary travel in and out of Britain will not be allowed until May 17 at the earliest. The British government is expected to announce its plans for how and when this will happen on April 12.
Sean Doyle, who took over as head of British Airways in October, has called on London to work with other governments to resume travel through the covid-19 vaccine and special health applications. “I believe that those who have been vaccinated should be able to travel without restrictions. “Those who have not been vaccinated should be able to travel with a negative coronavirus test,” he explained.
Britain has already given the first dose of the covid-19 vaccine to 44% of the country’s adults, especially those over 60 years of age.
The British government has emphasized that the return to travel should be done in a fair way and not put those who have not been vaccinated against covid-19 at a disadvantage.
Doyle estimated that Britain would set up a three-tier system for the various destinations, depending on the spread of the coronavirus in each.
Analysts estimate that most European airlines will focus on nearby leisure flights this summer, and Doyle noted that France, Greece, Portugal, Cyprus and Spain seem to have a positive outlook for British tourists.
