Re: Corona virus and its effects on GLA
T2 will remain closed until 2022 or unless international travel gets a big boost.

Would be nice...but I believe they are using T2 for COVID testing before departing.southflyer wrote: ↑Fri Jun 18, 2021 2:12 pmWould be a good time to make it look more like a terminal and less like a cow shed!
Re: Corona virus and its effects on GLA
On a more positive note, Ryanair's 3 Polish routes have resumed this week, along with Dublin. which leaves only Charleroi to re-start. Easyjet manage to get in to double-digits of domestics on some days as well, and BA frequencies on London City and LHR have also improved. Hopefully Tui and Jet2 will manage to get going at some point in July.

“Expanded travel green list for Scotland
24/06/2021
Key destinations added following latest review.
New additions have been made to the international travel green list for Scotland to include Malta, Madeira and the Balearics.
There will be close monitoring of the position in the Balearics over the next three weeks ahead of the next review point.
The easing follows the latest review of the ‘traffic light’ risk warning system for international travel which came into effect on 17 May.
Other additions to an expanded green travel list include Antigua, Barbados, and Bermuda.
A number of destinations – including Tunisia and Uganda – have been added to the red list which requires managed isolation for 10 days on return.
The latest changes come into effect at 4am on 30 June.
The steps were considered on a four nation basis at a strategic meeting which also considered possible options for future changes to amber list arrival requirements.
The Scottish Government is cautiously considering the evidence for easing amber list travel restrictions for fully vaccinated people.
However the need for caution to protect public safety means no decision is expected on this immediately and four nations discussions will continue.
The latest analysis of international travel restrictions has seen no change to the green and red list requirements.
Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero, Energy and Transport Michael Matheson said:
“From the outset we have said caution is required regarding international travel and people should think very carefully about travelling abroad as situations can suddenly change.
“We continue to work closely with the other home nations and are cautiously supportive of exploring options for the easing of restrictions for fully vaccinated travellers arriving from countries on the amber list - but only if the clinical advice supports it and if systems are in place to ensure the wider safety of the Scottish population.”
Background
Additions to the green list from 4am on 30 June are: Malta, Madeira and the Balearic islands; the Caribbean nations of Antigua, Barbados, Barbuda, Dominica and Grenada; and the UK overseas territories of Anguilla and Montserrat, Bermuda, British Antarctic Territory, British Indian Ocean Territory, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Pitcairn, and Turks and Caicos Islands.
Current green list countries are: Australia, New Zealand, Brunei Darussalam, Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Iceland, Falkland Islands, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha.
The Dominican Republic, Eritrea, Haiti, Mongolia, Tunisia and Uganda have been added to the red list following the latest review.
Travellers currently returning from red list countries are required to enter managed isolation. Amber list returnees must self-isolate at home with two PCR tests on days 2 and 8. Travellers returning from green list countries are not required to isolate, with a PCR test on day 2.
We have a system in place to provide people with a record of their vaccination status if they need this for international travel. Not many countries currently accept a record of Covid vaccination status as an entry requirement, so for the time being most people will still need to follow other rules when travelling abroad – like getting a negative pre-departure PCR test.”

Re: Corona virus and its effects on GLA
anybody fancy 2 weeks in the south sandwich Islands or Eritrea? It really is a bit of a joke......
Re: Corona virus and its effects on GLA
They’d be very stupid to let us in with record numbers of new cases every day and rates worse than the rest of Europe put together.
