SOUTH Africans and UK travellers to South Africa are rejoicing, after Secretary of State for Transport of the UK Grant Shapps announced that South Africa and 46 other destinations will be off the red list from Monday, October 11.
“Eligible fully vaccinated passengers and eligible under-18s, returning from countries and territories not on the red list, can do so with just a day two test. On the decision, Shapps said: “With half-term and winter sun around the corner, we’re making it easier for families and loved ones to reunite, by significantly cutting the number of destinations on the red list, thanks in part to the increased vaccination efforts around the globe.
