What are you going to do? I am booked to go to a Greek island 01/07 & am anxious & peed off that I don't even know if we can go!!
Just waiting to see what the next travel review says....

We have - we're too late to cancel but would struggle to pay for numerous tests for all of us and quarantine on the way back. Kind of hope it gets cancelled (again) or it's all green to go.
Hopefully we'll know more in June.

Yes, we're just waiting and hoping we can go. If we can't we'll just change it with the holiday company to next year.

It's tipped for Greek islands to be on the green list from 03/06....

UK citizens can now enter Spain for non essential reasons such as tourism without needing to provide a negative PCR test. Quarentine still required on return just now, but that may change by July.

We are. We had booked for St Lucia last summer and pushed it to this July, circumstances have changed slightly so rather than lose deposit we have booked to go to Crete. Just a waiting game I guess.

I’m going to Spain at the end of June It’s business and pleasure and we have allowed for quarantine.

Not looking good for us.
Anyone still going despite Amber list?
I've calculated it'll cost us around £1400 on tests Hmm
Then there's the quarantine....

We're booked for Greece in August. Our travel company allow us to change up to 2 weeks before our date of travel, so we've given ourselves until 30 July to make the decision. We will be bitterly disappointed if we can't go as, like a lot of people, this has been held over from last year but we're not prepared to go if Greece are still on the amber list due to testing and quarantine.

I'm so fed up with it all to be honest.

Were meant to be going in July (holiday booked 2 years ago) but I'm now pregnant and arnt taking the risk. Villaplus won't refund or will move it for a 60% charge (what a joke) so were hoping it gets cancelled or we loose a hell of alot of money!
