Today (Monday 21 February), Australia has reopened its borders to fully vaccinated tourists for the first time in almost two years. With 1 in 20 people planning to travel there this year, Australia is the eighth most popular destination for UK holidaymakers in 2022 and joins five others in the top ten[i] that have announced relaxed travel rules this month.
Spain, the UK’s number one travel destination, recently announced that children aged 12-17 can enter with proof of a negative test rather than needing to be fully vaccinated, while France (3rd), Greece (5th) and Portugal (6th) have dropped all testing for those who are fully vaccinated.
