Following issued by FCDO today ....
"On arrival, travellers entering Spain from the UK will not be required to self-isolate. However, from 23 November, all passengers (including children) travelling to Spanish airports and ports from ‘risk’ countries (the website is in Spanish, the list of ‘at risk’ countries is at the end of the document), as determined by the European Centre for Disease Prevention & Control will be required to present a negative PCR (swab) test taken within no more than 72 hours prior to arrival, in order to enter the country. The UK is currently on the ‘risk’ countries list and passengers arriving from the UK are therefore subject to this requirement"
Considering most crossings take 28 hours or more - this is going to make the obtaining of the PCR nearly impossible to get. Having spoken to a number of clinics today - most are unable to confirm even a 48 hour turnaround.
Brittany Ferries will find they are sailing empty if they are unable to get a waiver on this which I should imagine is going to be very unlikely.
Looks like anyone thinking of some winter sunshine will have to make alternative plans ... not sure if the requirement also applies to coming by road from France but you probably will need this PCR to enter France anyway once it opens.
Anyone found a way round this?
going to laminate them along with my certificate once i have had second jab, who needs a vaccination certificate
