He said they are already being carried out at departure gates on people going to places where this is a requirement.

John Holland-Kaye urged the UK government to produce a plan on what common standards airports should adopt.

"If you want to get the UK economy started again, you have to get the aviation sector started again."

Mr Holland-Kaye said the introduction of common standards would allow airlines to start flying again more frequently. Thousands of flights have been cancelled due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions.
