So excited about Line of Duty Series 6! Here's a little poem for you....no idea if you'll be able to read it all - I've never added screen shots before.....

@JimAdams105 @adxllbaker I’m already back in Canada and never had symptoms. The point is that we took 2 PCR tests and came back negative, which should suffice, regardless of if we had a mild cough or not
Attention anyone travelling to Canada (and some other countries) from the UK. You need a negative covid test to fly, but most airlines do NOT accept NHS tests. We’ve learnt from our mistake and missed our flight, but don’t want anyone else to have this happen! ✈️ 🗺 😷
@adxllbaker No idea, the Air Canada manager said it’s because you should only be getting an NHS test if you’re sick. I said that I had a mild cough but tested negative. He said if I had a mild cough I shouldn’t be flying, even if it’s negative. LOL 😂
@RoadBudget I know they announced this in December but it doesn’t explicitly say NHS tests aren’t valid. AirCanada did not tell us anything, and the people at the airport said it’s not their job to, and that it’s our obligations to research the requirements, even though NHS wasn’t mentioned
@RoadBudget It changed the morning of our flight, as we were the first flight back to Canada since the 2 week ban. It would’ve been impossible to get a test that morning and get results before the flight, such a poor system. They probably turned about half the passengers away with no remorse
@adxllbaker Seems to only be a paid for PCR and LAMP tests for Canada, but there’s no guarantee it won’t change. They just said no NHS tests so do a paid one if you can. We’ve just done the Express drive thru test at Heathrow and got our results in less than 24 hours
@davetravelthing I know right, who knew!? No one told us they weren’t accepting NHS tests. Staff representing @AirCanada were incredibly rude to everyone they were rejecting. Didn’t take time to explain the situation, just told us “you’re not flying today”.
@TheFearlessFor1 Unfortunately not. We’ve been trying to get Matt’s PR in Canada, which has taken up all of our time, money and energy. Now with the virus, we’re both technically unemployed. Luckily we’re both freelance writers so we’re too busy writing for clients to write for ourselves 😔
@suzystories Thanks Suzy! At the end of the day, we're together ❤️ so we aren't travelling right now (actually crying inside as I type that), it'll happen again soon!
@Boulder_Sam Thank you, we appreciate that. We always knew our hand would be forced eventually, it just came as a shock when it finally happened. Oh well, it's for the best long-term!
