those balearic islands of ibiza, majorca and menorca are really popular with young people always, and them have been unable to get their second vaccination yet, which puts them in a difficult conundrum if they have a holiday already booked for this summer. they have to decide if they can quarantine, if that's possible or feasible for them, or whether they postpone or cancel their holiday, which potentially means losing out financially as a result, so yet again there is a government decision that has very different implications depending on your age. it's more choppy waters for those dreaming of a summer getaway, as the traffic lights have changed colours again. for those about to fly off it will mean quarantine and more tests when this woman gets home. the mean quarantine and more tests when this woman gets home.— this woman gets home. the timing of the test and — this woman gets home. the timing of the test and things... _ this woman gets home. the timing of the test and things... that _ this woman gets home. the timing of the test and things... that needs - the test and things... th

you can see on those tweets from the transport secretary we are moving the balearic islands and the virginvelling at the - british taurus. i think we all know. by now that travelling at the moment is not the same as was before there was a global pandemic. it does mean that people, particularly if your book into a green watchlist country make sure you get the money back and make sure you get the money back and make sure you can rebut your accommodation whenever required. that is really what this demonstrates more than anything else. 0f demonstrates more than anything else. of course hopefully for some people children, those under 18 plus people children, those under 18 plus people have been fully vaccinated you won�*t have to quarantine, you can treat it as it is. it will mean i�*m afraid for some people that they will have to come home and they will have to do those ten days of quarantine. four orfive have to do those ten days of quarantine. four or five days to test and release which is still available to everybody. the test and release which is still available to everybody. the 18 euros

in the last hour, the government has announced its moving balearic islands in spain from its green listk as of 4am on monday. transport secretary gran shapps made that announcement — here he is. well, unfortunately, when we put them on the green watchlist, from then we have seen the rates double, and also the rates of positivity doubled, meaning that we are going to need to move quickly, as we said we might always have to do, we will go on to the emperor list, and that will happen from 4am on monday morning. london is the first city in england to insist on face coverings on its transport network, when the government eases covid—19 restrictions in five days. here's london mayor sadiq khan. what would've been far better is for the national rules to continue to apply across the country, notjust in london, but across the country. that would've provided the clarity in relation to what the rules are and avoid any confusion. it also would've meant that we could have used the met police service and british patrol police to enforce the law. i'm quite clear with the conversations i've had with lo

the change for those returning to england, scotland and wales from spain's balearic islands will takeitionally do holiday to. so yet more chaos for people having to try to work out if it affects them, what they're going to be able to do, and even booking a holiday at the very last minute now doesn't seem to give you the ability to actually avoid any of this kind of stress. suddenly, there will be people just turning the global a little bit from the balearic islands to croatia. that's right. so, i mean, there's two bits of good news in this. we have got bulgaria that's gone on to the green list and we've got croatia going on the green watchlist which is where the balearics were. i think the only issue i would say is that these are not destinations that traditionally have huge numbers of brits going to. they are popular but they're not as popular as the balearics. so it could be a case that people manage to switch their holidays to these destinations if they are not yet jabbed. but again it's a real bitter blow for the youngsters. they're the ones that really have suffered, i think, the

chapter two says - its mediterranean hotspots like spain, the balearic islands, the canary islands, greecends are the most popular. easyjet says after the government's announcement, bookings were up 400%. it isn't plain sailing yet. there will be extra costs, because travellers have to pay for covid tests before and after their return. also, they will still have to quarantine if they have been jabbed still have to quarantine if they have beenjabbed outside they have beenjabbed outside the uk, and rules may be different in northern ireland, scotland and wales. some have questioned why travel restrictions are easing now, just as the number of coronavirus cases in the uk are soaring. it is the highest in europe. but cases are starting to rise thereto, particularly in popular holiday destinations like spain, portugal and greece. that could mean sudden changes to travel rules imposed by other countries. also, whatever the uk nations decide, number of countries like allow uk travellers in still allow uk travellers in without a period of isolation. and some amber countries won't let uk holidaymak

from monday the balearic islands of ibiza, majorca and menorca will move from the uk government's green are not fully vaccinated, will have to quarantine when travelling to and from the island. it could be a big blow to the local economy which relies heavily on tourists from the uk. 0ur reporter nick beake is in ibiza. the beaches here on the island have been filling up, but unfortunately lots of young brits have been packing up, ready to go home. they've had to cut their holiday short because they have to beat the new quarantine rules that come in at 4am tomorrow morning. in practical terms, it's meant that lots of people, while they've been on holiday, have had to change their flight, bring it earlier, and they've been talking to their tour operator in some cases to do that. they've had to take their pcr test to get home much earlier. so a lot of people have been really disappointed. the problem is that lots of young people we've been talking to have had one jab but not two jabs. that's the issue here. also, for people coming back from france, returning to the uk, even if they're doub

—— balearic islands. hello there. sunshine did wonders for the temperatures on wednesday.and over the next few days with more sunshine on the way those temperatures could have a little further to climb. it may be up into the high 20s and parts of the south over the weekend. but it's not all about sunshine, this is the earlier satellite picture from wednesday. you can see this cloud that has spilt in across scotland and northern ireland, that working down into england and wales as well. so a lot of places having a fair amount of cloud through thursday, maybe even given the odd light shower in eastern england. but that cloud will tend to break. we will see spells of sunshine. i think the best of those across parts of northern england and northern ireland and a good part of scotland. and in the sunniest places, temperatures will get up to 25, maybe 26 degrees. but some eastern parts of england will be affected by a keen breeze, and that will feed more cloud in across east anglia and the south—east once again as we head through thursday night into friday. at the same time, clo
