Arrivals into Gatwick Airport
(Picture: PA)Airport immigration hall queues would be reduced to pre-pandemic levels if the Government axed complex Covid travel forms in time for the Easter holidays, the boss of Gatwick said on Wednesday.
Chief executive Stewart Wingate said he would “very much like to see” passenger locator forms — one of the last remaining Covid travel restrictions for vaccinated passengers — being scrapped this month. Government sources indicated on Tuesday it was “fairly likely” that the forms, which still have to be filled in by everyone arriving in the UK from abroad, will be dropped, possibly as early as March 18.
