The number of European countries tightening travel restrictions on Spain is growing as Covid cases continue to rise, not only in Spain, but across the continent, however the UK is determined to go ahead with Freedom Day this month and launch the double-jab travel scheme for Amber countries.
While the Balearics remains on the green watch list until at least Thursday, when the travel traffic light is reviewed in the UK, if the islands are demoted to Amber, the double-jab rule will mean that losing its green standing will have little impact with regards to British tourism.
British holiday bookings for the Balearics have already risen by over 60 percent since the double-jab scheme was announced and it means that when restrictions in the UK end on July 19, a total of 33.8 million people will be able to travel to “amber” destinations such as Spain.
