Son is just about to fly from Poland to uk
First where there's normally a flight to Birmingham that's not happening its two hours away to Luton

Wizz flight one way premium cost seat hold luggage £80
Polish covid preflight PCR £65
UK covid quarantine test x2 |£180

So the tests are three times the airfare

Uk advisory landing forms on the app
Proof of UK tests booked and paid for and address where quarantining
Plus willing driver for 4 hours driving to and from Luton airport

There is talk that the price of PCR's in the UK will come down when travel abroad is generally opened up. The average cost at the moment is £120 and in some cases even more. Some people are making a lot of money out of this!

Don’t forget It’s still not legal to travel to or from the UK ....unless for specified reasons.

Hence one reason why tests are still very expensive. Expect to see these prices come down once the UK allows full travel.
