they have a cap on flights, so £45 is the maximum you'll ever spend on a flight.

Adam RamsayGUEST
13:00
And one of the things they've done is they've allowed these kind of liminal spaces like the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands and Gibraltar, but also Jersey and Guernsey and Man, and actually also other places that sit formally outside the constitution, like Singapore, which has a a very close constitutional relation with Britain, but it's not formally part of Britain.
