Zurich. NOT London.

From November 23rd. They are now also specifying it must be a PCR test.

Not sure how I'm going to manage that for a flight on December 27th?

Hi

So we have this very problem as we are flying back on 3rd.

We have booked a test (£150 each) for the afternoon of 30th Nov .. the result will come back by the afternoon on 2nd and we fly out on morning of 3rd.

There seems to be confusion if it has to be taken within 72hrs of departure or arrival ... so we have taken worst case and based on arrival .. luckily we have an am flight on the 3rd so within the 72hrs.

Its all crazy

Official and today in BOE.

Upon arrival, ALL travelers must be able to submit the PCR test from 23 November, at airports and ports.

Heavy fines if not complied with.

From the 14th you will have to have a negative test upon arrival in your hotel/apartment to check in, otherwise you have to do a test at that moment.

It will also have to be completed on this form (control form) that you are in possession of a negative test.

Yes, it is a PCR test designed also for travel purposes. You will find all the information if you Google Boots Covid-19 testing service. You need to register for the service and you can also book online. They are only rolling out this service at the moment so not all Boots shops offer it. There is a link on their website where you can check which shops offer it. I called to the nearest one and booked over the phone as I had some questions but you still need to register online.

Tests - **Important Information**

As of 14 November all visitors will need to show a negative Rapid Antigen test result before being allowed to stay in Canary Islands ???? regulated tourist accommodation, it can be done up to 72 hours before Check-in and is available too after arrival on the island for around 25€. The more expensive PCR test (100-150€) is also acceptable.

As of 23 November a negative PCR test will be required to enter Spain ???? from any country or zone designated high risk, this currently includes UK ???? and most countries in EU.

Up to 72 hours Before Departure.

Rapid antigen tests will not be accepted for this, as the rules stand currently.

If the country you are flying from manages to bring infection rates down, and keeps the rate below the high risk threshold (150/100k population) for at least 14 days, and is therefore no longer designated high risk, then you will only need the rapid antigen test to stay in Canary Islands ???? tourist accommodation, which can be done after arrival.

Morning, we fly out to CT on the 19th Nov and have been advised by our host that as we are staying in Private Accommodation we do not need to bring a Negative Test Cert, we only need to complete the Spanish Track and Trace (QR Scan) info. We have asked for clarification twice and the answer has been the same each time. The Negative paperwork check at the airport begins on the 23rd Nov. This is our understanding.

Which means you're staying in unlicensed accomodation.

I dont think it's too much of a worry but if you did happen to show signs of covid it's very unlikely the government scheme would apply to you

Trying to get on that link but it's jumping all over the place! The antigen test will certainly be cheaper for travellers

£20-£30. The islands tried to push it through but were blocked. They were going to send everyone to the health care centre for a 15 minute test. Hopefully they can negotiate very soon.

According to FCO and Spanish Government website its a PCR test only from 23rd November.

From FCO website

On arrival, travellers entering Spain from the UK will not be required to self-isolate. However, from 23 November, all passengers (including children) travelling to Spanish airports and ports from ‘risk’ countries (the website is in Spanish, the list of ‘at risk’ countries is at the end of the document), as determined by the European Centre for Disease Prevention & Control will be required to present a negative PCR (swab) test taken within no more than 72 hours prior to arrival, in order to enter the country.

Just for clarity if you get the results the same day it's very unlikely to be acceptable.

That's brilliant, I emailed Jet2 dozens of times asking to provide subsidised tests.
