With lockdown finally over, holidays are back on the agenda for millions of people across England - sort of.
While we are now legally allowed to go abroad for leisure, not all countries are accepting tourists from Britain, and the UK government isn't letting us come and go everywhere as we please.
There are, as you've likely heard by now, green, amber, and red lists, denoting the restrictions on travel.

Travelling to a red list country will mean you'll need to quarantine in a hotel on your return to Britain.
If you go to an amber list country, you'll need to quarantine at home when you get back to the UK - unless you're under 18 or you've had both your Covid-19 vaccinations, in which case you'll only need to quarantine if your post-travel PCR test comes back positive.
If you go to a green list country, you won't need to quarantine on your return.
All foreign countries require a post-travel PCR test.
If you're not already confused, those lists are for ever changing, plus some countries are in mini-lists of their own. To help you, we thought we'd answer some frequently asked questions regarding foreign travel.
When is the next green, amber, and red list travel review?
The UK's travel lists are to be reviewed every three weeks. The next review will be on either Wednesday, August 4 or Thursday, August 5 - the transport secretary, Grant Schapps, usually updates the lists on Thursday but brought the most recent review forward by one day.
What is likely to change at the next travel list review?
The following are at risk of moving from the green list to the amber list, according to the government: Anguilla, Antarctica, Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Bermuda, British Indian Ocean Territory, Cayman Islands, Croatia, Dominica, Grenada, Israel and Jerusalem, Madeira, Montserrat, Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie, and the Oeno Islands, Taiwan, and the Turks and Caicos Islands.
There may also be a further update on France, which is effectively in a list of its own because the amber list rules, including quarantine at home, apply to it regardless of your age or vaccination status. This is because the UK government is concerned about the spread of the beta variant of Sars-Cov-2, the virus that causes Covid-19. Scientists fear the beta strain may be better at evading the body's immune defences.
In addition, there is speculation that Spain and Greece could be added to this so-called "amber-plus" list, alongside France. Separate speculation says France may be removed from "amber-plus" and put in the regular amber list.
