Many Brits will be looking to get away on a holiday abroad as coronavirus travel restrictions continue to ease.
The UK has now changed its travel rules, so fully vaccinated people no longer have to take a Covid-19 test before they return or after arrival.
Travellers who have had two or more jabs only need to fill in a passenger locator form when arriving in the UK.
While testing requirements have been eased at home, most countries still require unvaccinated or partially vaccinated travellers to test before arrival, LiverpoolEcho reports.
