This also means that any Brits returning after 4am on Sunday 18th October will need to quarantine for 14 days when they arrive back in the UK.

The decision comes following concerns over rising numbers of coronavirus cases in these destinations.

It isn’t all bad news – Crete has been added back on the corridors,

Secretary of State for Transport Grant Shapps announced the news on his Twitter account.

He wrote: “TRAVEL CORRIDOR UPDATE: We are REMOVING ITALY, Vatican City state & San Marino from the #TravelCorridor list. However, note that the implementation date is moved to 4am on SUNDAY 18 October & applies UK wide, if you arrive from these destinations you will need to self-isolate”.
