Holidays to Turkey are now free of Covid restrictions.
The Turkish Government dropped requirements for visitors to submit either vaccination certificates or negative Covid tests when they enter the country. The move, confirmed by the UK Government's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO ), comes just in time for the peak holiday season.
Turkey's resorts, including Marmaris, Bodrum and Antalya, are popular with holidaymakers flying from the UK.

"As of 1 June, all Covid-19 restrictions in Turkey have been lifted, and passengers arriving in Turkey are no longer required to present proof of vaccination or negative PCR test results, The FCO says.
"However, Covid-19 entry requirements may change at short notice, you should check the specifics with your airline before you travel."
Face masks do not have to be worn indoors or outdoors in Turkey anymore "if air circulation and social distancing are adequate," The FCO adds.
Masks do not have to be worn on flights to Turkey, Turkish Airlines confirms, although some operators may still require passengers to wear a face-covering due to their own rules.
