Corona virus and its effects on GLA

[jetblue497]

Regardless of which of the countries you pick, ALL of them are disparaging the vaccine efforts elsewhere by making statements like this "This will apply to UK residents who have received a full course of the vaccine through the NHS, and 14 days have passed. It will also include certain people participating in clinical trials, as well as some overseas military and diplomatic staff." So the millions of others worldwide who are fully vaccinated are discriminated against. I will concede that a vaccine not approved in the UK may not be approved for entry - but the Pfizers, AZ etcs that are? Disgraceful. The EU is allowing approved vaccinations entry - wake up UK countries.

Clive it’s you I feel sorry for. Your comments lack both nuance and understanding. They show a complete head in the sand approach of a one party state.

Leaving the political swipes aside you haven’t actually responded to the statement what would you do if you were in charge of AGS or GIP.

I’d concentrate on running my airport and leave public health pandemic control to the global experts.

I wouldn’t be qualified to dispute any of the public health measures. I’d know it’s a difficult balancing act between easing up and keeping a lid on it and I’d try to be constructive rather than disruptive.

With the benefit of hindsight, now knowing how the pandemic spread time and again and affected not only us but every single one of our destination countries, you’d think these vested interests would be showing some humility by now.

Far from it. They’d have killed us all if they had their way.

Maybe I should be bowing to your superiority but I don’t bow to anyone.

Neither do I. Only to a much higher authority than planet earth.

Ireland announced that travellers from Britain who are double vaccinated no longer require PCR tests or quarantine from Monday. I booked a Ryanair return flight for next weekend to see my folks in Dublin for the first time since February 2020

Probably see more Ireland flights added as travel expands

Get to see my mum & family.for.the 1st time in 18months too.... although they're getting ferry.....wife had to self isolate for 10 days after someone on her flight home tested positive, so whole flight had to isolate & out of 6 flights her work colleagues were on 5 had the same thing happen!

Things are definitely improving, with 35 arrivals today, spread across a good selection of our carriers, with Loganair and Easyjet in the lead, since they are predominantly domestic. Emirates now pushed back to August, but even that may be optimistic since Dubai is red listed.

KLM due to have a 737-800 on the afternoon flight on Friday 23rd and a 737-700 on the morning flight on Saturday.

Makes a change from the Embraers.

Lufthansa used an E-190 today. Since their return it's been a mix of CRJ, E-190 and Airbus which is a good sign as I expected it to be CRJ for a period of time while the route re-established itself.

How does one currently prove personal vaccination status though ? Has there been an agreement on "passport" format yet ?

You can get a print out of your status from the Scottish NHS website or request a letter for those without printing capabilities.

You can get a print out of your status from the Scottish NHS website or request a letter for those without printing capabilities.

Just in case anyone is thinking of travelling soon, the only officially recognised way of showing vaccination status at the moment is a paper copy which you request online but is mailed to you on NHS headed paper. It will come in the same blue envelope as your vaccine appointment. See https://www.nhsinform.scot/covid-19-vac ... ion-status for more information.

Also plan ahead as it's currently taking around 4-7 days to get your letter as more people start to travel and use the service.

Don't try to use a print out of the website as this isn't officially recognised and you may be refused carriage/entry, but an online version should be coming soon.
