Following Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab’s statement on 23 March, we strongly urge British tourists from overseas to return home while commercial routes remain. Globally, more and more airlines are suspending flights and more and more airports are closing, some without notice.
Be aware that airfare prices are very high right now and may continue to rise.
