Travelers in the UAE with British or Irish passports can return to the UK but must isolate for 10 days on arrival. Meanwhile, travelers to the UAE will be taken straight to the quarantine hotels by February 8.

According to The National “Emirates remains committed to serving customers in the UK and will reinstate outbound passenger operations from 2 February," said a spokeswoman for the airline.

"Initially, this will include a daily flight from London Heathrow and four weekly from Manchester. Services from Birmingham and Glasgow will continue to be cargo-only.
