Turkey lifts UK flight suspension

Arrival requirements include a negative PCR test, but a vaccine certificate will not be mandatory. 

Turkey has lifted the suspension of direct flights from the UK, announcing that arriving visitors will not be required to present a vaccination certificate, but rather a negative PCR test result. 

In the hopes of reassuring prospective visitors, the nation also announced that its vaccination programme is well underway, with over 20 million doses already administered.  

All accommodation facilities with 30 or more rooms have been mandated to join the 'Safe Tourism Certification Program' to ensure the premises are as safe as possible for guests.  

All of Turkey's major international airports are now providing testing facilities for departing visitors who require a negative test result, with PCR tests costing approximately ?26. Along with the testing facilities, tourists can also purchase a special insurance package from approximately ?12, which covers expenses for Covid-19-related treatment, medication and care costs during their stay in Turkey.
