Millions of lockdown-weary Britons are waiting with baited breath for ministers to reveal their green list of countries ahead of holidays resuming from May 17.
The Government is expected to unveil its traffic light system on May 7, when destinations will be categorised by varying degrees of quarantine restrictions.
Those awarded green list status, where returning travellers will not have to self-isolate, will automatically become prime getaway locations.
But despite craving tourists to revive their flagging economy, typical British favourites such as France and Spain could be set to miss out.
Paul Charles, boss of the PC Travel Agency, said today the green list will instead likely include countries Israel, Barbados, Morocco, Maldives, Seychelles, Grenada, St. Lucia, Antigua and the British Overseas Territories of Bermuda.

MALTA is set to welcome Brit tourists that have been fully vaccinated for the coronavirus from June 1.
In very welcome news the Malta tourism authority have confirmed that they are set to welcome British tourists to the European archipelago if they have been fully vaccinated against the potentially deadly coronavirus. ADVERTISEMENT
On a money-saving front there is also good news in the form of PCR tests, in that passengers will not have to provide a negative PCR test. Previously a negative PCR test within 72 hours of travelling had been required. Currently though the UK is on Malta’s red list, which means British sun worshippers will have to wait a little while longer before they can hit the beach.
