Where do we stand if we have checked in online for our flights for next month (easyJet) but we can’t isolate as we now have to, can we get a flight refund does anyone know ?

Can you check in for flights that far in advance?

If the flight goes and you booked it flight only...no

Even if its only 7 days in advance, that is "next month".

All those poor people who just couldn’t bear to do without their 2 week holiday away this year.
Shouldnt be allowed back in full stop unless they are tested and are negative imo.

You think they should stay there - even though the regulations changed while they were  there?

What will travel insurance position be if you booked a trip 3 weeks ago when the advice for Spain was that it was ok to go?

Indeed, the whole thing is a shambles. 

I do wonder how many phone calls and "visits" were actually made when it was all countries on the 14 day list, and I suspect most people will ignore it. Especially given there will be a lot of flights coming in from Spain and the authorities have no hope in hell of actually enforcing it.

Until the FCO website changes then the position is the same as it was yesterday.

Bradders you read my mind was going to post this... call centres are going to be even harder to get in contact with now.
