UK residents have been advised to work from home and avoid all but essential international travel. It’s pretty clear that if we shouldn’t be going to the pub, we shouldn’t be getting off to a villa in Spain. The country is facing almost 20,000 cases and has lost over 1,000 Spaniards to the virus. If you’ve already booked a trip to Spain, you’re probably confused about what to do. When can we fly to Spain again?
