UK travel restrictions: how to redeem or get a refund

2021-12-16T15:34:52.636Z


The French government announced Thursday to re-establish from Saturday the obligation of "compelling reasons" for travelers from


Doors to the UK will be almost closed from Saturday.

“From this Saturday morning 0 am”, there will be “an obligation to have a compelling reason to go or come from the United Kingdom, for unvaccinated people as well as vaccinated people”.

These reasons "will not allow travel for tourist or professional reasons," the government said in a statement on Thursday.

The validity of tests on departure from the United Kingdom is reduced from 48 hours to 24 hours, and an isolation system on arrival in France is also in place, confirmed Matignon in a statement.

The tightening of travel conditions to cross the Channel will have many consequences on reservations by airline and rail companies, especially for the holiday season.

In view of government decisions, many travelers will have to cancel or postpone their trips.

A puzzle for families and carriers.

Deadline June 30, 2022

In this new context, the Eurostar train company contacted by Le Parisien, has confirmed these exchange or refund conditions to us.

"We allow free redemption for all trips booked between December 17, 2021 and January 10, 2022. You can also request an e-voucher, which will be valid until June 30, 2022," the company told us.

At Air France, the situation with the United Kingdom has not changed the conditions already in place for several months.

The "Air France Protect" system is valid until June 30, 2022. It allows you to recover your reservation either in the form of a credit or a refund for all trips purchased before January 31, 2022.
