About two weeks ago, England declared Israel a green country that anyone who comes from it will not have to go into isolation.
From then until next Wednesday, England is in quarantine, so whoever enters the country by then, will not really find interesting entertainment options.
Towards the end of this week, England is expected to come out of quarantine and there is interest from many Israelis who are willing to absorb the isolation back in favor of a holiday in London.
The cafes and restaurants are expected to open in the Corona format, there will be restrictions on gatherings, probably up to six people who are not family members and the big news that Israeli tourists will be very happy to read - some Primark branches will open 24 hours a day.
It is important to note that despite the closure, England is still considered a red state.
Currently, the number of infected people is around 15,000 a day and there is a reasonable chance that leaving the quarantine will not be every tourist's dream and that there will be significant restrictions even after that.
For those looking for direct flights to London, there are already several companies flying between the countries including Virgin Atlantic and El Al.
Returning from England as aforesaid requires isolation for 12 days, subject to corona tests and according to the procedures and entry into England as aforesaid, there is no need for isolation for anyone coming from Israel.
Other countries that are defined as red and receive tourists from Israel are Mexico, the USA, Turkey, Ukraine and other countries in Central America. It is important to mention again that everyone who flies to each of these countries is required to stay in isolation after returning to Israel.
