If, if we're being optimistic, when a vaccine turns up the first in the queue to get it will be the usual suspects in the NHS and other critical areas of the public service. The rest of the population (those who earn money and donate corporate taxation to the national exchequers) will be way down the pecking order. That's not to belittle the NHS and public service by the way.
So there will be no justification to raise quarantine or travel restriction for probably 6 months after a vaccine starts being rolled out. On that basis it would seem vanishingly unlikely that any routes suspended until Summer 2021 would come back earlier.
