Holidaymakers can now jet off to the beaches of Italy, France and Spain after the Foreign Office updated its travel advice. The FCO had previously warned against ‘all but essential’ international travel following the coronavirus outbreak. But it now says certain destinations no longer pose an unacceptable risk of Covid-19 and are exempt from that advice from July 4. But travel to virus-hit countries, such as the US, Mexico and Brazil, will be trickier. The exemptions from self-isolation apply to all modes of international transport, including sea and international rail routes as well as flights.
