Current Travel Situation
Guam to United Kingdom: What You Need to Know
The United Kingdom left the European Union in 2020 (Brexit) and now has its own entry requirements. US citizens must obtain a UK ETA for airside and short-stay visits. Guam residents holding US passports must apply for this before flying to the UK. The US and UK maintain a deep special relationship.
How to Get There
From Guam (GUM) to London (LHR) via Tokyo (NRT) on British Airways or Japanese carriers, or via Los Angeles (LAX) and London on Virgin Atlantic or United Airlines. British Airways serves Tokyo Narita (NRT) directly. Total journey from Guam is approximately 20 to 26 hours.
Money & Banking
The UK uses the Pound Sterling (GBP). Cards are widely accepted. London is expensive. Budget GBP 80 to 150 per day. ATMs are widely available. Tipping 10 to 15% at restaurants is customary.
Practical Tips
London Heathrow (LHR) is the main international gateway from Asia and the US. London is one of the world's great cities with world-class museums (most free), theater, and cultural attractions. The UK uses Pounds Sterling separate from the Euro.
