12 flights today ... there is an SEF (immigration) strike today .. so be warned
25 flights tomorrow there have been around 20-30 people all week around Alfagar pools, so building slowly compared to almost nothing the previous midweek. More on the beaches midweek on the other cams too .. Albufeira and Vilamoura.

So you self test with some options, a lot cheaper than £100 or €100 but how do you obtain the results and present them when travelling?

Green @ £20 per person containing 1 x pre-departure Lateral Flow Test and 1x inbound PCR test for day two
Green+ @ £60 per person containing 1 x outbound PCR test with courier costs 7 days a week included, 1 x pre-departure Lateral Flow Test and 1 x inbound PCR test for day two But as you can see it does include the PCR, seems a good deal |

£20 is lateral flow test ... Scottish Govt gives these out free ... you can also buy in bulk for much less. Here is the link for TUI

Tui today announced £20 tests so considerably less to travel than £500 , much more affordable

I doubt it they are in the know, but if people are going onto their website looking for flights, that will surely trigger some response. But anyone booking anything is surely taking a biig risk. And there is still the question of having to pay for two health checks for each member of the family, which could add £500 to the cost of a two week holiday trip. Are people forgetting this?

Very interesting that EasyJet had cancelled most flights in May, but now I can see they are reinstating some , wonder if they have had a heads up from the government about the green list !

More than likely but it is a very anonymous aircraft!

Just seen a Lear jet fly overhead in Albufeira. Flight was from Birmingham (according to Flight Radar) - wonder if it is to collect some of the F1 personnel from yesterdays Portuguese Grand Prix?

With no-one daring to book holidays it's not surprising that airlines are cancelling flights now, rather than wait until the last minute and the choas that would cause. |

We had transferred flights from last May to this May, thinking it would be better , 20th to 27th but they have been cancelled ! In fact my local airport has no flights at all to Portugal in May and I know some who have had June cancelled already !
This is not looking good at all ! |

Including a BA flight from Heathrow! Also there is a Luxair flight from Malaga due in at 1810. It's a positioning flight, as at 1900 it heads off back to Luxembourg. Nineteen flights are due in tomorrow including three from Lisbon and other odd one, From Zaragoza in Spain, a charter flight operated by JetNetherlands doing I know not what. Shows that not all flights would be carrying passengers.

Two aircraft have just passed over here on their way in, very low and very noisy! One was from Hamburg and the other from Brussels. I count six more Germany today, three from Netherlands, two from France and also coming from Luxembourg and Switzerland.
All full of people making essential journeys??
