"The French government is keeping a close eye on the Omicron situation in Britain, and may tighten entry restrictions to those travelling from the UK if the situation worsens, says a French government spokesman.

"We are always looking at means to tighten the framework, we are currently working on that and we should, I think, come to a conclusion in the coming days," Gabriel Attal told France Info radio on Tuesday.

France is currently in the midst of a fifth coronavirus wave, mostly driven by the Delta variant.

There are 133 confirmed cases of the Omicron variant in France, Mr Attal said."

I am hoping to go on Sunday but I am really not sure it will happen now...pondering whether it is worth booking my day pcr or not...

I read that too this morning on Reuters. We are due to travel on the 27th and have decided to cancel. Just too much uncertainty for us.

Oh no! What else can they do quarantine or ban us? I hope you can get & hope the measures will be temporary.

New restrictions on travel from Saturday, you can’t enter without an essential reason (holidays aren’t one) or if you have citizenship rights.

"
France toughens restrictions on UK travellers
We bring you more on the restrictions on UK travellers France has just been announcing.

Government spokesman Gabriel Attal says this morning the prime minister’s office will make “in the next few hours” announcements regarding travellers from the UK.

Attal says travellers from the UK will have to show a PCR/antigen test less than 24 hours old (as opposed to 48 hours until now).

Only French citizens returning from the UK, or British people living in France, will be allowed to come to France.

Travellers will have to give a compelling reason to be allowed to enter the country. People arriving from the UK will have to isolate at a location they choose, their isolation will end after 48 hours if they show a negative test."

Doesn't sound hopeful for those of you due to travel. So sorry.
