Champions League Final | Travel Requirements + COVID Tests

It makes it even more mental when you consider how thousands were bunched into the airport to get through customs. I was in there for over 2 hours with what seemed like 2 or 3 thousand other people!

That was a joke. No air con either. Covid breeding ground before we even got properly into Portugal.
 
I was on Porto-Gatwick and then Gatwick-Belfast on Sunday. Coughing neighbouring passenger on the Belfast flight. Test and trace message arrived this afternoon. Supposed to be going on holiday to Scotland on Monday.
 
The Government requirement for turnaround of these 2 day tests is 72 hours, not sure if that includes date from postage or receiving, however this could mean Saturday until results received.

No point having a 10 day isolation if it takes a week to find out your were supposed to do it. It is a token effort to line the pockets of Boris and Farage types.
 
Cha ching, 3 tests that’s nearly £200 I wonder why they want that, it’s a big fucking con now.
No, you don't have to pay for NHS tests. You don't even have to go to a test centre. Order online, comes next day, take test post it back and result day after. To be fair NHS testing has been a better service that all the companies that charged us for pre-flight and Day 2 tests.
 
I find this all a bit weird. I got notified this morning to self isolate being on flight 11.
Been in touch with two mates I travelled with and sat next to on the plane there and back. Spent all day with them. They have heard nothing.
I don’t get it
No surprise, our track and trace has never been any good.

Yet the nhs are buying from someone, so tax money is been spent on them, just like the £37 billion track and trace shit.
 
The woman who called me this morning said if you provide 3 negative tests prior to day 7 they MAY let you leave then, a few days early but she wouldn't commit to saying that was a definite and said it was a new rule that might change again. She could only say that the person who rings me on day 7 will be able to tell me.

I went to get an nhs PCR test today (so the 2nd test since contact including the day 2 test which was negative) and will do the same Saturday morning assuming that is negative to give myself a chance! Might not work but willing to do it in case
Will lateral flow tests count for this or does it have to be a PCR test?
