It’s outside of pdi. Probably 15/20 minute drive into pdi I would hazard a guess.

No test required, but you need a pre screening firm completed and a QR code 48 hours before travel, download the app SpTH it gives you all info you need to access Spain

£60 ? think that may be an antibody test.

Well, there is a book now button on their website?

Just seen Canaria government are proposing again for a negative test (72hours) the idea has already been turned down twice. This time they have suggested that you will need it to check into your hotel. Just gotta wait and see...

We have flights booked for the 26th December, looks like Boxing Day at Boots if this goes through.

Thanks, I ever even thought to check the website

The proposal was 48 hours before the flight and I think they are due to discuss it again on Thursday.

I just had a look at the boots website and its not the 20 minutes test.

It says you'll get the results within 48 hours unless it's inconclusive ( probably poor sampling)

That's pretty much the best you'll get and it's why we decided to cancel our trip in December before we paid the balance

We asked both jet2 and our insurance company for advice and jet2 said IF it were a requirement ( which it isn't isn't arvthe moment) we wouldn't get on the flight without the result. The insurance said they would pay compensation if the result was positive but NOT if we didn't get the results on time which includes an inconclusive test

Too much worrying as we could have lost nearly 3k

Once they decide what's happening we'll book a cheap 1 week hopefully at the beginning of December

Personally I'd like the added safety of knowing people had been tested before the flight given the high infection rates here as long as the logistics are in place and reasonable costs

"Loads are closed at minute luv

I think that's the way to go, how long will these large hotels take to start up again?...

Im currently laying on my sofa in the playa del sol.

Very good location for a walk to the cita and backs onto the yumbo.

Rooms are clean and tidy althoufh a bit dated it is comfortable and has the amenities. Rooftop is nice and for naturists.

When do you arrive at the hotel yourselves

Safe trip

About Playa del Sol. It's a decent place. Not luxury but clean and staff have been pleasant. Cleaning is regular. Furnishings are basic but not too bad. You get basic kitchen equipment but not basic supplies like oil/salt/pepper. There is a small shop selling basics at the reception until early evening. Think fast WiFi and safe aren't part of the most basic offerings but fast WiFi is part of the 'premier' rooms. Nude terrace with a possibility to have fun. Close to Yumbo so you may hear sounds if /when it starts to party hard again, though it's quiet now. Have heard some 'sounds' from neighbours a few times but you can't blame the hotel for that! Also, evening onwards keyless entry by outsiders isn't possible, so guess that's some added safety overall.

Bromsgrove / Gran Canaria

The Government of the Canary Islands has approved a decree-law stating that tourists must provide a negative Covid-19 test to stay at accommodation on the archipelago.

Either PCR or antigen tests will be allowed as proof visitors are Covid-free, as long as they comeback negative and are taken within 72 hours of arrival, states the decree – which comes into force on November 10.

Staying for three weeks from the 8th. has been recommended. Sounds ideal for long stay so dont have to spend every eve in restaurants or pubs, so cost effective hopefully.

Not aware of proof required but taking my company badge as I need it anyway and letter from my local office confirming my arrival. I believe only verbal challenge may prevail at customs as not against the law to travel given exceptions announced but welcome any recent experience...Spain QR document is required.
