The lifting of the foreign travel ban has come just in time for the summer, giving millions across the UK hope for a sunny getaway.

Several airlines, including British Airways (BA), have relaunched their flights abroad, following the updated travel advice from the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) - which now lists the countries and territories which no longer pose a high risk to British travellers.

If you don’t have a summer holiday lined up already, now could be the perfect time to book. BA has just launched a flash summer sale - with packages priced from £199 each.
