All the destinations you can fly to with Ryanair, easyJet and Jet2 from July

A number of airlines such as Ryanair, easyJet and Jet2 have announced their plans to restart flights from next month. 

While you may have thought your chance of feeling the heat hit you in the face when the plane doors open had completely flown away until next year, a glimmer of hope has been given by some airlines. 

Many popular destinations have begun steps in welcoming foreign visitors to their country. Matt Hancock in a recent television interview said he ‘wouldn’t rule out’ the possibility of people being able to go on holiday in July. 

Despite all this, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office is currently still urging the public to not travel abroad. 

From June 8th, there will be a quarantine programme in place at UK airports meaning international travellers coming to the UK will have to provide information about where they will be self-isolating for 14 days to border officials.

If not, these individuals could face quarantining in government-arranged accommodation.

The majority of airlines are set to restart flight schedules from next month, including Ryanair, easyJet and Jet2.  

Ryanair

Last month, the low budget airline announced its intention to restart 40% of the normal flight schedule, with daily flights from countries all over northern Europe and flights to key holiday airports. 

The airline’s CEO Eddie Wilson said: “All Ryanair flights will operate with new health guidelines in place, which will require all passengers (and Ryanair crews) to wear face masks at all times in the airport terminals and on board our aircraft, in compliance with EU guidelines.

“We look forward to welcoming millions of Ryanair passengers and their families back on board, and flying them on holiday as Europe’s economies begin to recover from these difficult recent lockdowns, which have been so successful in reversing the spread of the Covid-19 virus.”
