Wales and Northern Ireland agree air bridges with France
Wales and Northern Ireland have both confirmed today they are opening a coronavirus quarantine ‘travel corridor’ with France tomorrow.

The Welsh Government released a statement saying it will no longer require a 14-day quarantine for people arriving from the countries identified in the British government’s list.

Connexion understands that this refers to the same list.

Scotland made a similar announcement yesterday, but excluded two countries that are included on the UK’s list.
