I’m due to travel to Rhodes on the 8th of August. Has anyone on here travelled over there since the travel corridors were introduced?

my dd forgot to do the form and was worried it didnt seem to let her do it, she should be in the air, coming back, at the moment !

She'll be able to complete it on arrival uk, but it will be more time consuming. There were loads of passengers from our flight who hadn't completed it, they just had to join the big queue where no one seemed to know what was going on

thank you @Hohofortherobbers
i wonder why you need to?
what would they do? send you back?

Hohofortherobbers · 25/08/2020 22:19

That's what I wondered! It's not like they'll turn a British citizen away at border control for not completing it and send them back to Greece (I wishGrin) Perhaps they check Greek citizens QR code at departure in Greece more thoroughly, like they do at UK departure for UK citizens going to Greece. Its really important to not complete it earlier than 48 hours before expected UK arrival though (Greece PLF for entry to Greece needs to be completed earlier than this). Also for return to UK every adult over 18 needs their own PLF (Greece PLF requires all family party on one PLF). So on the way to Greece we had 1 PLF which included, me, dh, dc. On way home to UK I had 1 PLF with me and dc, dh had his own PLF.

thank you, i am sure she didnt know that!

Hohofortherobbers · 25/08/2020 22:32

Tbh we would have overlooked it on the email from easyjet sent to us a few days ago. It's just another tourist started chatting to us and told us all about it. It's not very obvious

Thanks @Hohofortherobbers will make a reminder note for myself now!

Well we made it to Corfu! Both airports Manchester and Corfu were a breeze, quick check of the form and we were through! Ironically got my negative test result through from my final attempt at self testing today!

Have a lovely time @Faraway20! Starting to wish I hadn’t cancelled now, hey ho!

wizzbangfizz · 29/08/2020 21:42

We got here and it's amazing! Lovely and quiet very safe

We are meant to be going to Tslivi on Sunday 😔 I'm panicking now.

Not sure if this is said upthread, but a heads up that you need to fill in a passenger form online before re entering the UK, very similar to the Greek PLF.

You can't do it until max 48 hrs before your flight back. Lots and lots of confusion at the passport gates at Gatwick on the way home from people who hadn't read the Easyjet email telling them to make sure they'd done it...

Thank you.
