The FCDO has added Thailand to its travel corridor list - despite the fact that the country currently isn't accepting tourists.

Secretary of State for Transport Grant Shapps announced on Twitter that Thailand, along with Singapore, was being added to the corridor list, meaning that Brits returning from the destinations won't be required to quarantine for 14 days.

Meanwhile, under the latest travel changes, Slovenia and Guadeloupe have been removed from the travel corridor lists. The new advice has already come into effect.

However, this doesn't mean that Thailand holidays are back on the cards for Brits. Currently, the country has closed its borders to tourists due to the pandemic, with only 'certain categories of foreign nationals'

'Shocking' crowds of tourists filmed queueing for 300m to climb Mount Snowdon

North Wales Live. “I usually walk up the mountain first thing in the morning and I haven’t been there at the weekend for a long time, so I was quite shocked by what I saw.“Even from below you could see the line of people stretching down the mountain from the summit.“The queue was already 200 to 300 metres when I reached the top.“It was still quite early, so it would probably have got busier later on.”Reaction to Arwyn’s Twitter video of the queues has been mixed, with some believing Snowdonia’s mountains are there to be enjoyed.But many have questioned why so many people head to Snowdon when there are other, less crowded summits to be tackled."823 sq miles of Snowdonia to walk in,” said one Twitter user.
