France’s UK travel ban to end ‘within days’
France’s ban on UK travellers could end very soon, giving hope for late season ski holidays.
The Independent reports an announcement could be imminent, with the current ban set to end by the weekend.
France imposed a travel ban before Christmas due to rising Omicron cases in the UK, but France has seen an even bigger surge.
The Times also reports an announcement could come today.
It quoted French MP Alexandre Holroyd, who said travel for vaccinated Brits could resume ‘very soon.’
Ski operators are extremely confident travel will be allowed very soon.
"We are expecting the French government to make an announcement this Wednesday to confirm that British vaccinated skiers can enter France from this Saturday," Skiline.co.uk told customers by email.
