Ryanair and the IAG want to bring a joint action against the UK's new quarantine regime. Others open, UK closes.

While numerous EU states are in the process of relaxing their entry requirements and largely foregoing 14-day quarantine or submitting negative corona tests, the United Kingdom is introducing exactly this on Monday. The IAG, which among other things maintains the subsidiary British Airways there, and Ryanair now want to sue.

Willie Walsh, General Manager of the International Airlines Group told Skynews that the UK government's move was "disproportionate". As a result, the group would not be able to ramp up the flight program from July 2020. Shortly thereafter, Ryanair announced that it would join the International Airlines Group's lawsuit.
