Here at the moment, new test regulations?

[disneytrio]

Hi we are here at the moment and obviously had the day two tests booked and paid for with codes for our passenger locator forms to return to UK.
What do I do now ? Do I have to order PCR while I’m here for my return? Do I get new codes if so for passenger locator?
Also do I have to wait two days after returning to get PCR booked or can it be done after I land.
From what I’m reading on news it says day two PCR then isolate until results but it doesn’t say if it has to be day two or if I can have up to day two?
Thanks everyone!

You will need to order or book PCRs from here for the code for the passenger locator form
The wording is a PCR by the end of day 2 and isolate until a negative result
I’m also here but had booked a PCR for return anyway as that’s what it was in Scotland when we left mid October

You can do the test the day you arrive, Looks like randox is the way to go, will have to order for click & collect, drop off in one of their gold
Locations if you want results by 9am Next day. If you are in no rush for your results you can see
If the company your ordered Your lft From can change to pcr, depends if they have already posted out. Might have to lose money on the test you have already paid for.

According to the Simon Calder article this morning we need to isolate immediately and can only go out for testing and emergency reasons.

Our LFT tests are also useless so it's either randox as above or we will probably go with Halo at T5 as we land. Bit of luck, will have results by the time we wake up from jet lag nap.

The only problem is that you can't fly without filling in a Passenger Locator Form and these are not yet ready for flights that land tomorrow.

Our flights are booked for for 19:25 EST from Tampa, so they have about 7 hours before check-in is scheduled to open

The MCO-LHR Virgin flight is supposed to take off at 16:30 EST... even tighter

I’ve filled in the form that was there, added our PCR test references and it seemed to go ok.
Does the form itself change or just the test requirement
