Petition · past parliament

Open up Dubai as a Green list travel corridor

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

There are 250,000 UK citizens living in the UAE. Anyone arriving from the UAE to the UK must isolate for 10 days in a Government Hotel paying £1750. Currently Covid cases have fallen and are low, plus the vaccine roll out is greater than the UK success.
The UAE should be added to the UK Travel Corridor. Using reasons of it being a "travel hub" are not a valid reason, when our own Heathrow airport is a major world hub.

Why it was rejected
