Holidaymakers are being urged to stay updated with any changes to Covid travel regulations amid a resurgence of the virus in popular hotspots. Travel trade body Abta warned travellers to ensure they have the correct documentation to travel to their holiday destination.
The message comes as Spanish authorities backtracked on a promise to allow British passport-holders to use automated border control e-Gates to avoid airport queues. However, the UK Foreign Office has highlighted that use of the automated gates is restricted to adult travellers.
Anyone travelling with children to Spain must still have their passports checked manually following a U-turn by the country's border authorities. There are also fears some of Europe's most popular resorts may bring back some Covid rules to fightback against growing infections.
