(54,051 posts)36. If you are a US citizen, your UK/EU spouse may travel with you
You need the negative PCR tests less than 72 hours old. You must also bring a copy of your marriage certificate to the airport of departure. But foreign spouses have been exempted from the travel ban all along (read the fine print), as long as they accompany their American spouses. They do not even need to return together, but get a new test before you leave to go back.
My wife is a German citizen, and has been allowed to accompany me back fo the USA all three times I have been back since the summer of 2020.
There nonstop flights from London to Phoenix on British Airways, so you can land near where you have to be.
