Border Force staff are demanding tougher penalties for airlines that fail to check passengers Covid paperwork causing huge delays at airports.
Even with non-essential travel banned under current rules, pictures show seven-hour queues as officials individually check thousands of passengers Covid paperwork on arrival.
Last week, a woman collapsed at the passport control desk after waiting for hours to be seen.
And, with May 17 marking an end to the government s ban on overseas holidays there are fears the delays could worsen.
The Immigration Services Union - which represents Border force workers - said pressure to ensure arrivals have followed Covid travel rules should be on the airlines.
Travellers arriving at Heathrow airport in London are being forced to wait up to six hours to pass through UK immigration queues, according to an airport executive. Chris Garton, the airport’s chief solutions officer told MPs that the situation is becoming ‘untenable’ and the police have been forced to step in.
Giving evidence to the Commons Transport Select Committee, Garton said: “Wait times in recent days have typically been well in excess of two hours and up to six hours. We’re starting to see disruption in some of the arriving passengers. If you’re made to queue for two or three hours, it’s not something you want to do. We’re even having to involve the police to help us.”
