Covid-19 Testing: Overview
Find everything you need to know about Covid-19 testing with D&A Screening
Fit to Fly Test
What is a fit to fly Covid-19 test for travel?
A fit to fly certificate is a medical certificate signed by a doctor. The certificate will show that you are fit to fly, with no symptoms of Covid-19 and a low risk of spreading coronavirus to other people in the country you intend to fly to.
In order for us to provide you with a fit to fly certificate for travel, you are required to undergo either a Covid-19 PCR (polymerase chain reaction) or antigen (lateral flow) test. PCR tests work by detecting the genetic material in the virus called RNA and require a swab sample to be sent to a laboratory for the results to be processed. Antigen tests look for proteins created by the virus and can be taken at home using a pregnancy-style test, giving results in minutes.
Many countries require PCR tests for travel, however, the type of test required will depend on the destination or territory you are travelling to. A rapid antigen test is accepted for use as your required test to enter the UK.
Where can I get a Covid-19 travel test near me?
D&A Screening offers private Covid-19 tests for travel complete with a certified fit to fly certificate. You can book your tests online or over the phone. If you test negative for Covid-19, we can provide you with a certified Covid-19 fit to fly medical certificate signed by a UK General Medical Council (GMC) doctor. Please note that we can only issue a fit to fly certificate if you test negative for Covid-19.
Is the fit to fly certificate guaranteed to be accepted by all airlines?
Our Covid-19 tests are fully certified and accredited by UKAS and PHE, ensuring your results will be accepted by your airline and embassy. The RT-PCR swab test is the only test which is universally accepted by all airlines. Rapid Antigen tests are only accepted by certain airlines and border authorities.
Travel Test Package (Day 2 and 8 Testing)
What is a Covid-19 travel test package?
Currently, most travellers entering the UK need a Day 2 test after international travel. Travellers are required to perform a test on or before day 2 for variant surveillance. If you are arriving from an amber list country and you are not fully vaccinated with a recognised vaccine, you will also need to take another test on Day 8 of your quarantine.
How much does the travel test package cost?
Arrivals from green list countries can purchase our Day 2 test for £89. Arrivals from amber list countries can purchase our Day 2 and Day 8 tests for only £198. You can order your travel test package through our website
What happens if I don’t take the test?
Testing upon return to the UK is mandatory for certain travellers. If you do not take the required test, you may face a penalty up to £2000. Please see the government website for the latest information.
Test to Release
What is the Test to Release scheme?
Some travellers arriving in England from outside the UK, Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man are required to quarantine for 10 days on arrival. Under the Test to Release scheme you can choose to pay for a private COVID-19 test with a provider like D&A Screening. If the result is negative, you can end your self-isolation period. Please note that you cannot take this test until you have been in England for 5 full days.”
How can I take part in the scheme?
You can book in your test with a government-listed private test provider like D&A Screening.
Is the Test to Release scheme mandatory?
No, Test to Release is voluntary. If you choose not to participate in the scheme, then you must continue to self-isolate as required by government regulations.
