Passengers are paying hundreds of pounds for post-travel tests that aren’t processed or fail to arrive
Less than two weeks after international holidays resumed, there are signs the government’s post-trip Covid testing regime is descending into chaos, with passengers paying hundreds of pounds for tests that aren’t being processed, or fail to arrive.
Passengers landing at UK airports over the past 10 days have described having to call the NHS 119 helpline after their government-listed testing supplier failed to deliver their results, leaving them unclear as to whether it was safe to end their 10-day quarantine.
