The ones i'm seeing landing at Heathrow appear to be daily services from New York, Dallas, Washington, Madrid, Dubai, Rome etc...
Not saying you are wrong, but these appear to be daily scheduled services. I might have this very wrong but on the face of it, appears to be a huge contradiction.
I was on a scheduled airline.Originally Posted by Travs
They are probably all that are flying. They are alsothe ones that carry some freight.
I suspect what I said was also true. Very few passengers that are UK residents repatriating.
However you can go on the worldwide Expedia (other flight search websites are available!) site and openly book a flight to the UK from many places...
Whether you can board the flight is a different matter, of course.
Travs, am I right in thinking that, living in Coventry, "Doris from up the road"'s dog is a Pit Bull Terrier or a Dogo Argentino?

In most cases countries will only accept you if you are a resident or national there. Ie repatriating. Even then some countries are demanding quarantine (ie sticking you in a hotel for two weeks!) many require self isolation. But that is as it has always been. Airtickets are one thing, right to enter is quite another.
A ticket to the USA, never did get you into the USA, unless you had clearance first!
I think the Police are taking a pragmatic approach to this and are looking at persuasion rather than issuing straight out fines, the main message is not to group, go to the seaside enmasse or let your kids run riot, I don’t think they’re targeting Doris, she’ll not do time for her two walks a day
Yes I was being somewhat flippant with my choice of words...!I think the Police are taking a pragmatic approach to this and are looking at persuasion rather than issuing straight out fines, the main message is not to group, go to the seaside enmasse or let your kids run riot, I don’t think they’re targeting Doris, she’ll not do time for her two walks a day

Ha, we’ve all got plenty of time on our hands going forward, if Doris does go down we can start a campaign to free her I was thinking of calling her ‘The end of Travs road 1’Yes I was being somewhat flippant with my choice of words...!

I've had two international students going home and finding themselves in quarantine without internet access, so unable to do the online test that I had set for this week!
In his lifetime he suffered from unreality, as do so many Englishmen.

I personally know of two people who returned back to major UK airports this week (one from France, one from Vietnam, via a major transit airport).... both basically walked off the plane as usual, back onto the streets without so much as a question regarding their current health...
Really makes a mockery of anything we have put in place here..
