The UK government has released the list of countries which will be exempt from the coronavirus travel quarantine.

This means that if you are travelling back from one of these 60 countries you won't need to self-isolate for 14 days as they are deemed to have low rates of Covid-19.

According to Sky News, the exemptions will apply from 10 July.

Last month, the government issued advice surrounding air travel - urging people that the best way to fly was to wear a face mark and not bring hand luggage on the flight.

As well as that, airlines have been asked to attempt to minimise the number of face-to-face interactions between staff and passengers whilst on the plane and in the airport.

The new guidance reads: "You are strongly encouraged to check in baggage to the aircraft hold and minimise any hand baggage.

"This will speed up boarding and disembarking, and minimise the risk of transmission."

Travel from the UK to other countries is also permitted now with travel companies noticing a spike in sales as people rush to book holidays.

Spain-holiday.com, which is the third biggest holiday rental site in Spain, reported a record-breaking morning on 27 June.

They aren't the only ones because Britain's leading tour operator, TUI, also reported a 50 percent increase in bookings.

Head of International Brands at Spain-holiday.com, Peter Jarvis, said: "We're already seeing a huge increase in online interest in our holiday homes from the UK market, with pool properties being the most popular (up 104 percent).

"Vigilance is absolutely still needed but with sensible precautions on either end we are confident we will see a safe summer in the sun for Brits again this year."
