Thoughts on Autumn holidays abroad? Will restrictions still be in place?

[LadyLavae]

Due to go abroad last year but with lockdown we moved it to October this year.

I’m confident flying will be allowed but I’m not sure I want to go if we have to pay for tests or risk quarantining at our destination. I also don’t want to have to book time slots for pools or restaurants.

We have a limited time before we can move it to 2022 without charges. Do we move it to 2022 or keep it for this October?

WWYD?

I’d move to next year. I can’t see us being out of this by winter and think masks and SD will be in place still. Not to mention the more travel the more variants can spread.

A holiday for me is about exploring new places, eating out, shopping etc. None of which are any fun during a pandemic so we aren’t booking anything until we see how next year is.

I wouldn't.
It's all starting to kick off again in places like Italy and France.
Who knows how many more places will be added by Autumn?

I've just cancelled our holiday to France - it won't be a holiday f we are going slits for everything, wearing masks etc.

If we are booking slots - my phone is playing up!

It’s all so uncertain. DH thinks we should hold on as we should be able to go in October but I’m unsure

We've got a week in Portugal booked in October too. Pushed from last October to May, then in again to October this year. I can't decide what to do either. If we have to quarantine on our return then we definitely won't go. I think I'm going to take a view in August and decide then. Fortunately it's all amendable with no penalty.
