BRITISH holidaymakers could book a trip to a country on the government's 'quarantine-free' list - but be barred from entry on arrival.  Travellers from England can fly to 73 countries and territories including France, Italy and Spain without quarantining if they return from July 10.  ⚠️ Read our coronavirus live blog for the latest news & updates  But Cyprus, Japan and New Zealand are among countries on the 'green' list that have restrictions on permitting UK travellers.  Norway, Dominica, Finland, Hungary, Malta, Mauritius, and Monaco also currently have restrictions on entry.  Today's confirmation came as the government eases travel quarantine rules, which were brought in to contain the spread of coroanvirus.  The new rules have sparked confusion ahead of the relaxation on travel later this month.  One holidaymaker said: "Govt travel advice news is a mess. 'A MESS'  "These aren’t all ‘corridors’ as some ‘safe’ countries in our eyes won’t let us in. "  Another posted: "The famous ‘air bridges’ are actually just a list of countries that upon return to England you won’t have to isolate for 14 days.  "There's nothing saying these countries will actually let you in."  And a third tweeted: "Under the "air corridor" rules you're now allowed to fly to Japan for your holidays.

Japan won't let you in."  To make matters more confusing, Brits could go on holiday to a quarantine-free country, but STILL be forced to self-isolate if the air bridge rules change for that country while they're abroad.  Today's confirmation has been long-awaited by Brits desperate to go on holiday, but the list is not written in stone.  The guidance says: “We will keep the conditions in these countries and territories under review.“If they worsen we will not hesitate to reintroduce self-isolation requirements.  “Travellers should always check the latest FCO travel advice.” Countries exempt from quarantine when arriving in UK - and whether you'll have to self-isolate when you arrive  Andorra - not allowed in  Antigua and Barbuda - Non-nationals with certain travel history will be refused entry  Aruba - no quarantine  Australia - 14 day quarantine  Austria - 14 day quarantine unless you test negative  Bahamas - must prove negative test or denied entry  Barbados - quarantine while awaiting mandatory test result  Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba - border closed  Belgium - no quarantine  Croatia - no quarantine  Curaçao - not allowed in  Cyprus - not allowed to enter if been in the UK in last fortnight  Czech Republic - no quarantine  Denmark - no quarantine  Dominica - not allowed in  Faroe Islands - tested on entry  Fiji - not allowed in  Finland- not allowed in  France - voluntary 14 day quarantine  French Polynesia - 14 day quarantine  Germany - no quarantine  Greece - 14 day quarantine  Hong Kong - could be forced to quarantine  Hungary - not allowed in  Italy - no quarantine  Japan - not allowed in  Lithuania - 14 day qu
