Travellers arriving in England will no longer have to take a test if they've had two or more covid jabs - but one rule remains in place, regardless of your vaccination status.
Under current guidelines, vaccinated travellers must take a lateral flow test two days after they return to the UK and those who test positive must self-isolate.
But from 4am on Friday, February 11, all testing measures for eligible (fully vaccinated) arrivals will be removed.

Travel Minister Grant Shapps confirmed the news on Monday afternoon, after calls from industry professionals including Airlines UK and MAG (Manchester Airports Group) to reconsider the tests.
All passengers, however, will still need to complete a Passenger Locator Form.
Government guidance also states: "If you are not fully vaccinated you will need to take a pre-departure test.
“After you arrive, you will need to take a PCR test on or before day 2, but you will only need to quarantine if it’s positive. You still need to complete a passenger locator form."
Anyone arriving in England before 4am on February 11 will be required to, at least, book and pay for a covid test to be taken after arrival, and complete a passenger locator form.
