Q I have read your story about hotel quarantine and the fact that Scottish passengers arriving in England will be expected to isolate at the airport they arrive at. Just how do they plan to manage this, if I fly into an English airport and drive or take the train to Scotland?

I have no issue with undertaking quarantine, but I don’t want to be in some poor quality, government-selected hotel.
