‘The real risk is that air travel becomes the preserve only of the wealthy, for whom adding £400 to the cost of a family week in Spain is no big deal.'

The cost of getting a PCR test before travel should be capped at £40, a Tory MP has said.

MP Henry Smith said the fees are crippling the tourism industry and making holidays ‘the preserve of the wealthy’. ‘How many businesses, or theatres, or restaurants, could survive if the government slapped a £100 tax on each transaction. Very few. ‘Government needs to build on recent progress with vaccination exemptions from quarantine by eliminating testing requirements from low-risk countries, and by capping the price of PCR tests to something like £40 – if and where they are still needed.’
