The UK’s airports are preparing for their busiest days of summer, which see the departure and arrival en masse of the country’s families in the middle of the school holidays, as well as sunseekers headed for the Mediterranean.
Passports have been in the headlines once again with some airlines misinterpreting the rules and other passengers not being aware of the post-Brexit restrictions for travellers to Europe. More than one family has had a long-awaited holiday disrupted by passport confusion – make sure you know the rules well before you fly.
Meanwhile, train strikes will dominate the next couple of weeks for UK travellers, with industrial action being taken by transport staff on 13, 18, 19 and 20 August.
