Testing before traveling to England - When help?!

skipfeeney

Hi all,

I am confused about when I can take a lateral flow test before traveling to the UK from Greece.  I am due to fly home at 12.10 on Monday. There is a place I can get my laterall flow test done in the village I am in at the moment, so I am hoping to get that done at 11 tomorrow before I am picked up. I've not found a place at my next destination that does the tests. If I get it done tomorrow it will be 73 / 74 ish hours before my flight. Would that be ok? The official government website says "any time" but other sites state 72 hours...help 🇬🇷🥺

On official government site:

When to take your test

You can take the test any time in the 3 days before the service on which you will arrive in England departs.

For example, if you travel directly to England on Friday, you could take a test any time on the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. The test result must be available for boarding

Thanks

go with the official site 
using the same example and amending the days
if you travel directly to England on Monday, you could take a test any time on the Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Monday. The test result must be available for boarding
