Hi, Trying to book antigen test at Malaga airport for returning to U.K.  IPad won’t let me book for some unknown reason.  Can you just turn up without booking? 

Thank you.

Yes you can just turn up without booking but I saw a long slow-moving queue so leave plenty of time

I've booked one for 28th,can't understand why our government waiting whilst 4th October to change things.

Daft think is I can have my pre flight test at 8am in the morning,fly then have my 2 day one at 3pm same day in the Uk.

We should have cancelled the 2 day one and kept the pre flight one.

Nooo. The pre flight one is what is stopping my guests coming out to Spain. People are too scared of not being able to get home. Many cancellations this year from uk but Europeans  have been travelling happily. If UK gov really wants to get things moving they have done this correctly.
