Business aircraft arrivals into the UK spiked in recent days as travelers rushed to re-enter the country before being required to be quarantined at a fixed address for 14 days under rules that came into force just after midnight today. Data from industry analyst WingX showed 80 arrivals yesterday, which was more than double the meager 38 arrivals seen on May 17.

Flights into the country started climbing steeply from June 2, when it became clear that the UK government would not yield to aviation industry pleas not to implement the quarantine. The WingX data shows that 102 business aircraft departed the UK yesterday. On the same day in 2019, 195 aircraft flew out of the country.
