Wizz possibly opened Gibraltar, thinking that people could claim the green list benefits of Gibraltar, but use it as a back door to Spain, and thus avoid quarantine. All done on a nudge and a wink. Yes, naughty for people to be planning to do this, but this kind of thing happens.Yes, potential for being caught with a border stamp, but people probably thought Border Force haven't got the desire to check every page of every passport. I imagine some people might have booked, printed off proof of booking, and then immediately cancelled 7 nights in a Gibraltar hotel, just to wave some paperwork at people

Now that Spain doesn't incur quarantine - and probably won't for the duration of August - people who want to visit the Mediterranean will mainly book flights to Malaga / Alicante. Many of those who booked flights with Wizz between the UK and Gibraltar in August are probably happy that they can get their money back and book to where they actually wanted to go in the first place

Wizz are just reflecting booking habits by the (fraudulent) Great British public
