Anyone travelling back to UK needs to do this to save time and stress on arrival

Also needs to be completed for entry into Spain.
Download the SPTH app and it’s a piece of cake.
Like the OP, on my flight to the UK on the 15th nobody was aware. Two flights landed at the same time........had to queue for 2 hours to get the form completed!
Not happy.

Some people seem to live in their own little bubble with no knowledge of the outside world. :grin

Gingernut, yes its for everyone returning to the UK, easy enough to fill in online, can't do it until 48 hrs before departure.

Hello Folks,

I arrived back in the UK yesterday, against my better judgment!

Upon arrival at Bournemouth, I was greeted by Border Force officers who were checking if I had completed a form about contacting me if someone on the flight had C19. I, together with the majority of the passengers on the flight, hadn't a clue about this and were told to complete the form online using our phones or risks a £100 fine. Well as you know completing anything online using a phone is difficult at the best of times, especially so when there is limited wi-fi at the airport and fellow passengers are asking you questions. For those passengers without smart phones tablets were provided, but these were very few.

It took me the best part of half an hour to complete. Another £3.00 for parking too.

Message to Ryanair : instead of sending me junk mail about hotels and car hire why couldn't you have advised me that this form needed completion beforehand, grrrrrrrrrr!

Here is the link to complete the form 48 hours before you return:

Good luck and stay safe, brrrr now where is my sweatshirt!
