We are all adjusting to life living with Covid and what that means for travel and taking a holiday.
Many countries still have covid regulations and you will still have to do testing and produce paperwork to prove it to gain entry to your holiday destination of choice.
Project Screen is a government-listed COVID-19 RT-PCR and lateral flow testing service in the UK. Offering a range of at-home and in-person tests they offer a great service for the traveller in need of proof of being covid free before they head off on holiday.
Project Screen’s process is simple and hassle free – which is exactly what you need when you are busy packing and organising your life before you head off on holiday. Don’t forget to cancel the milk, drop the cat off at the cattery and book your PCR test.
A test is delivered to your door, you complete it, and send it back via expedited courier with your results posted in under 24 hours. This quick and efficient service has proven extremely beneficial for the UK, a fact we can see in the 30k tests it completed per day, amounting to more than 6 million in total.
Remember back in 2019 when we used to think travelling was a hassle? If you haven’t gotten on a plane since the pandemic hit, you’ve saved yourself a giant headache— because believe me the paperwork and hassle was extraordinary. It was such a complicated and expensive process that it put many people of travelling all together.
However travel is now back on the agenda in 2022 which is welcome news for so many of us. Though traveling right now is still a high risk in certain areas of the world, the world is adjusting to make travel a little more friendly, but with heightened health and safety measures in place to keep it safe.
Project Screen was developed in 2020 at the height of the pandemic, offering a convenient and affordable COVID-19 testing option for those who needed to get out of the UK. The service is exclusively available for UK residents, arrivals and departures, providing quick shipping and a fast turnaround time for results.

Whether it’s required or if you simply want to check your own status, taking a COVID-19 test before you fly is a must. The Project Screen Fit to Fly Home COVID-19 Test Kit is done in the comfort of your own home or at one of the service’s 25+ Test Pods in the UK.
Delivering highly accurate results in 24 hours from the time it reaches a lab, you’ll receive a Fit to Fly certificate which you’ll show at the airport before boarding. Included in your kit are thorough instructions and your sample collection kit (swab, test tube, clear sample bag, request form, prepaid return mailer).
Keep in mind that this option may not be suitable for those who need a quick results turnaround time as it relies on the Royal Mail system. If you’re in a pinch, take your test into a Test Pod for faster processing. Fly with confidence with this convenient kit for £64.
It’s a UK Government requirement that all travellers to England coming from non-red-list countries take a test on day two of their arrival.
For those who don’t wait for lab results in foreign countries, the Project Screen Lateral Flow Antigen Fit to Fly Test Kit will show you your COVID-19 status within 20 minutes of taking the test. You’ll need to order your kit before you leave your trip, that way you’ll have it with you while away.
This test is not required for vaccinated travelers to return to England, only those who do not yet have or cannot get their vaccination. Take your test three days before you’re set to arrive back home and process the results yourself. In 20 minutes, you’ll receive an email with your results that you can show to board your flight.
You’ll need a smartphone to use this kind of kit, so make sure you have downloaded the app before you’re ready to test. Pack this handy set with you on your next vacation for £19.
Requirements are different for every country. Some require at-home PCR tests to be observed by a medical professional—and we can understand why. Virtual testing is still a whole lot more convenient than searching, scheduling, and waiting for an in-person test though, and this at-home test gives you freedom and flexibility.
For the most part, Project Screen operates in the UK, shipping out COVID-19 at-home tests for travel. Offering departure and arrival tests, the service is ideal for anyone (adults, kids, or seniors) who want to skip waiting in line.
Whether you’re busy or simply want to minimize your risk of exposure in crowded testing facilities, Project Screen provides affordable, flexible testing for all kinds of travel destinations.
