Deal to Let Brits Skip EU Passport Queues Would Have Happened without Post-Brexit Accord
- The UK government confirmed a new agreement with the EU enabling British travellers to use more e-gates at European airports starting in 2025.
- This development follows six months of negotiations aimed at easing post-Brexit travel barriers that limited British passport usage to a few EU airports in Spain and Portugal.
- The agreement also introduces pet passports for UK cats and dogs, removing the previous requirement for animal health certificates on each trip.
- Tim Alderslade, chief executive of Airlines UK, described the development as great news for British holidaymakers, saying it will help make travel more seamless for families visiting the EU.
- While the deal should reduce queues at border control, ongoing talks with individual EU countries will determine full access to e-gate facial recognition systems.
