(CNN) — London's Heathrow airport has reopened its Terminal 4 as a separate arrivals facility for countries on the government's Covid "red list" as of Wednesday.
Travelers arriving from red-list countries will be kept away from passengers in all other operational terminals, it said in a press release.In additional response to the risk posed by the Omicron variant, the airport will maintain "stringent anti-viral measures, designed to protect passengers and colleagues and reduce the risk of transmission," it said.
England's red travel list was brought back on November 26, after the government temporarily banned direct flights from countries from the southern Africa region over concerns about the Omicron variant.
