- Social distancing: Limited attendance and strict spacing in queues and attractions will be enforced.

Travel Advice for UK Visitors
The Foreign & Commonwealth Office currently warns Brits against all but essential international travel. Rules are tight and could change suddenly depending on the local COVID-19 situation.
“If you test positive abroad, expect to stay there until fully recovered. Quarantine or self-isolation rules will be enforced locally, often for extended periods.”
Plan thoroughly. Expect possible delays returning to the UK and consider the financial and practical implications of unexpected stays abroad.
