Scots could be allowed to fly to Spain, Greece and Italy as soon as next week as quarantine-free air bridges are set to open, it has been reported.
The UK Government will reportedly give the green light for foreign trips next Monday after a four-month travel break.
The air bridges - which will allow travellers from the UK to skip the 14-day quarantine rule - are set to be announced for up to ten c ountries, according to the Daily Mail.
France, Spain, Italy, Greece and Turkey have reportedly been "all but confirmed" to take off from July 4.
Germany, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Gibraltar and Bermuda are also said to be included in the list of destinations deemed "safe".
There are conflicting reports about whether Portugal will be included in the air bridge plan after the country enforced a strict 8pm curfew following a spike of new cases.
Scots could also jet to hotspots such as Dubai, Canada, Morocco and the Caribbean from August to late September, according to reports.
Long-haul flights to low risk countries such as Australia and Singapore are also reportedly in the works.
However, trips to the US, Mexico and South America will not be allowed until December, The Sun reports.
The news follows UK Transport Secretary Grant Shapps revealing there would be an announcement about air bridges on Monday.
He indicated the air bridges would only be agreed with countries which have a coronavirus test and trace system at the same standard as that used in Britain.
Mr Shapps said: "The Test and Trace system is enormous here now.
"We’ve got the capacity to test far more than is immediately required but that would allow for any uplift anywhere.
"Does the country we’re talking to have that kind of capability?"
He added that the spread of the deadly bug was being studied in each destination.
The transport minister added: "I understand entirely the pain that aviation is going through.
"I know both for airports, for airlines and actually for ground handlers as well, this coronavirus has been a complete disaster."
