Hi Sam, correct for non essential travel. Currently Brits keen to enter the US are, for example, travelling to Mexico, then onto the US 16 days later, 16 allows for travel days as, apparently, one must spend a full 14 days afore onward to the US.

A question this may raise, say the UK placed the US on the green list, would travel underwriters be coverage accepting for Mexico and the US.

This is getting very tight but our flights (0205) at the 20th of July is still going. Also our flight AMS - LHR is still listed as a go!
Keeping our fingers crossed!

Looks like the process to cancel up to Jul 25th has begun as well. We are due to return to the US on Jul 25th, GLA-LHR-MCO but the LHR-MCO has now disappeared from sale. LGW-MCO is still showing, but that happened last time and a day or so later the LGW-MCO was also cancelled. Just waiting for the cancellation email so we can call and re-route via Miami, NYC or Philadelphia.

No flights from LHR to mco now until 26th july, but still showing lgw, hope we can get out there but not looking good

Oh no - were booked Gatwick to TPA 19th.
DH is convinced America will make an announcement re travel next week (works for USA company but of course no real evidence for this).

We had an email from BA for our return trip. Luckily only a change it time (flying back to AMS with AA). Flight through LHR the 20th is still going.

And maybe this will help speed up things for lifting the travelban.

Our flight from LHR to JFK at 14.35 on the 20th July has disappeared now 😬 guess we just wait for the cancellation email now

I will update the opening post once the situation of both sets of flights from LHR/LGW becomes a little more clear.

We're LGW - TPA I had thought BA might have cancelled us before we pay our Disney balance but typically I think it might be a few days afterwards. I really want to go but don't think it's going to happen.

Oh gosh, we are booked with BA for the 25th … this will be our 4th holiday cancelled 😥
