Passengers will be required everyone to isolate for 10 days, even if they present a negative PCR test.<\/p>\n<h3>READ MORE<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>How vaccines can help end the coronavirus pandemic<\/li>\n<li>COVID-19 vaccine in Abu Dhabi: All the 96 locations where you can get vaccinated<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Since November 14, 2020, UAE-UK flight services have been allowed to operate on an \u201cair corridor\u201d basis, which means passengers did not have to go through quarantine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cImposing quarantine requirements on those arriving in the UK is our first defence in managing the risk of imported cases from communities with high risks of transmission.
