Fit to Fly PCR for going abroad?

[that1970shouse]

Help! I'm really struggling to find a PCR test for travel. It has to be done within 48 hours of departure so I need to do it Saturday with results back Sunday as I fly early Monday morning.

Boots in-store service only says results within 48 hours but by the time the store opens I will have less than 48 hours. A place in London (can't remember which provider) does rapid turn round but will be closed by the time I get to London on Sunday night.

I live in West Yorkshire. Getting train down to London on Sunday evening.

Look at airports. (Leeds, Doncaster etc)

To add... it doesn't need to be your airport. Just any airport

DAM health on Bradford close enough? Results in 24 hrs. Never used them.
I'd google 24hr pre flight pcr and your nearest big town.

You will need to book an appointment in advance and bring your passport with you to the clinic.

DAM Health in Liverpool do an express three hour turnaround service.

Whitehall Clinic in Leeds, 5 min walk from the station, not cheap (!) but great service.

See if these have any sites near you?

We used them for fit to fly LFT and also for a PCR on return at a sampling site. We did the PCR test at 3pm and had the results at 4am the next day so in 13 hours. (The LFT results were with us within 45 minutes).

Brilliant idea! All booked in at Randox Doncaster Airport. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the suggestion and I'll bear that in mind as a possibility for the future.

Thanks for the suggestion to take my passport. I hadn't thought of that.

Thank you. There is one location near me but no slots showing up for Saturday. Again, I'll bear it in mind for next time.

I was literally just going to post this as have the same problem!
