US-UK travel corridor unlikely ‘before end of summer’

The long-awaited travel corridor between the US and UK is unlikely to open before the end of the summer, according to reports.

In June, coinciding with the G7 in Cornwall, a new transatlantic travel taskforce was set up to explore ways to reopen UK-US travel.

Travel between the two nations has been frozen since March 2020, thanks to a series of presidential proclamations, while the US is on the UK’s amber list of countries, requiring a 10-day quarantine when returning to the UK and two post-arrival PCR tests.
