From next Monday I believe, the answer is 'Yes'. Also if you require insurance I don't think you would get cover for the Corona Virus.

Is the official Foreign Office line to only travel abroad for essential reasons?
That would probably negate all insurance for a tourist trip?

You're not going ot get any insurance taht wil cover CV-19 in any shape fashion or form and they'll probably try and weasel out of even covering a broken leg .

as for "Quarantine" just claim you'r Dominic Cummings, a F1 racing driver, a Romanian fruit picker or a German lorry driver

It's another of Priti's bright ideas - never went through SAGE she just had to have something to say the second time they let her out

Not to go off topic but you can now get insurance.

According to the Emirates website it looks like they aren't returning until September now. Also looking at the Loganair website the Bergen and Newquay have now disappeared and not bookable don't know if its been mentioned in the past

As long as you stay in County Durham for 14 days you should be ok, under Cunningham rules.

aka Cummins.
Maybe BoJo should enshrine the Cummins Corridor in Law so we can ALL move freely between the beautiful County Durham and London.

That could be a good thing.
My only remaining family is my brother and his family living in Thailand.
They have a similar size population to the UK.
UK, 39,000 deaths, Thailand 58 deaths....
Thailand has been getting new covid +ve cases at the rate of 1 every 1 or 2 days but now the lockdown rules are easing and people are getting back in from abroad the number of new cases is rising. Only slowly so far but yesterday there was a big jump to 17 new cases.
Almost all the new cases are from people coming back in from the Middle East.
It would be politically impossible to open our skies and airports for travel but block SA and the rest of the Middle East, they give our economy too much money, so the best possible thing is if the airlines see routes as uneconomic and don't fly in at all.

Sadly, it's the way the world works.
Time and time again we see the rich nations which we have huge trade deals with get away with murder and, for the airport (s) EK is massive so no chance of a ban either nationally or locally.

Sadly, after all the deaths and palaver the (in)human race has learned nothing but 'show me the money'
Maybe the population of NCL should be grateful to EK for nit bringing flights of Covid in until September.

Looks like Lufthansa have cancelled all flights until October. My flights in July have been cancelled and if you try to book other dates the results are all via DUS.

More likely they're worried about importing Covid cases from the hot-spot of Europe.

Rather than the hot spot of the Middle East?

That would be odd seeing as Greece is one of the 'safer' destinations.
Maybe it'll be Greece who wont let US in - and who can blame them.
