✈️ BEDLAM AT THE BORDERS! | Passengers Arriving at Heathrow Airport in London have been experiencing unbelievable delays at Immigration, because of Covid-19 restrictions.

Covid-19 News about UK Immigration 2021: Heathrow Airport is usually one of the world's busiest, but with passenger numbers down 88 percent, it feels more like a ghost. All flights have been consolidated to use just two of the five terminals: Terminal five for British Airways and Terminal two for everyone else.

Immigration officers are completely overwhelmed. Passengers have been waiting in line more than four hours at the border to be processed, prompting headlines like "Bedlam at the Borders" and "Mutiny at Heathrow." Maybe I can throw in a few headlines of my own.... "Turmoil in the terminal", "Havoc at Heathrow," and 'Anarchy on Arrival" all seem appropriate considering the circumstances.

Adding to the complication, passengers who are arriving from more than 30 high-risk 'red zone' countries, are being taken directly into a 10-day mandatory hotel quarantine. What's worse is the passenger is being handed the hotel bill, and I think they must have put Bernie Madoff in charge of the finances, because the 10-day stay in a three-star Sheraton or equivalent, somehow comes out to seventeen hundred and fifty pounds per person. That's about $2500 or $10,000 for a family of four! Now, that is what I call an expensive trip!

Heathrow certainly feels very different from the pre covid days, there's sort of a somber mood in the air.
