U.K and U.S in talks to open an air bridge between the countries.

Was that with BA or Virgin? My flight on 2nd with Virgin hasn't been cancelled as of now

 

Had our schedule changes from Virgin as they don't seem to be flying everyday as someone pointed out.

We now arrive 5 hours earlier and leave 16 hours later.

How dare they!

 

Mine was with virgin Atlantic - email received today - over the weekend they actually change it in my flights in my flying club future flights - very disappointed

 

That's really strange, mine is still showing and I can make seat changes etc

 

So is mine but it won’t be by next week so says the email

 

What's even stranger is you can still book that flight

 

I know but having had seven flights cancelled on me now I know it’s what happens

 

Am on 5 myself :-(

 

I'm at 7 Vegas trips, and one Antalya, lol.

US will accept all WHO-approved vaccines. Good news for the many who received the AZ-jab.

 

I’m at 3 to Vegas cancelled, 1 to Greece (changed that one to Bulgaria). But I have a feeling our December-one will be a go!

 

I have a back up one in December with a mate but my better half can only go once a year because of her annual leave and she is currently fuming that they have cancelled November

 

And so it should, it’s still amazing that we haven’t been given a date yet especially as the USA doesn’t have to do any work on UK and probably EU visitors as it’s all done at the departure airport and correctly enforced.

 

Can you rebook with another airline? Surely there must be other options?

 

That’s a possibility but she can only go from the 3rd/4th of November for about ten days but we absolutely need a definitive date of when we can enter. In the meantime I will have to look for somewhere else to take her!

 

crossing fingers that includes those of us with mixed AZ/MRNA

 

So, yesterday I was talking to a guy whose brother's best friend's cousin's boyfriend works with a guy whose girlfriend's uncle knows a guy who works in the White House and he said that he is absolutely, definitely, positively, certain that the border restrictions will be lifted from Noon on Nov 31st. The only thing he wasn't sure about was whether that means Noon GMT, EST, CST or PST...

It does kind of feel like that at the moment!!

 

I’m already on wait with the airline to cancel everything because I saw a guy online that talked to a guy whose brother's best friend's cousin's boyfriend works with a guy whose girlfriend's uncle knows a guy who works in the White House.

I mean, it’s right if it’s on the internet, right?

 

BBC report that when the US opens up, there will be testing and contact tracing requirements...

 

Sounds like it will be similar to travelling from the UK into Europe, they will want to know where you are staying and where you sat on the plane. Only difference will be a requirement to have a negative test result 72 hours before.
