The British Business and General Aviation Association (BBGA) this week stepped up its efforts to secure an exemption for the industry from the UK’s 14-day quarantine requirement, which took effect June 8 for an initial three-week period. The association is trying to convince the government’s Home Office that an alternate compliance plan provides sufficient protection against increasing the risk Covid-19 infections from the low numbers of travelers arriving in the country on business aircraft.
