I think a few here haven’t grasped that air travel helps spread new variants around the world before they have even been identified. So far we are dealing with variants that are more transmissible not variants where the vaccines don’t work. Anyone certain that won’t happen because it seems to be dawning on governments around the world that it could happen.

As our numbers drop it might be the case that we and other governments make it even harder to travel to protect the general population while the virus remains out of control around the world. I just can’t see travel restrictions being lifted anytime soon and with the uproar about the queues at Heathrow the public seems to be demanding closing borders not relaxing them.
