So I have made a huge muck up of my holiday booking.
Due to fly to Greece with Jet2Holidays on July 20th (typical, 5 days earlier and it would have been cancelled!) And now fully paid. Our first ever abroad family holiday.
I did the whole wait and see for a while as it looked likely to be cancelled anyway and presumed it would be easy to just change to next year once I had decided to. However it appears not now. I have had no reply to my email and no phone calls taken understandably. There is also the likelihood that to change to next year now would cost a lot more when the holiday cost was the top of our budget to get a good experience (though can save more over the year to off set the cost)
I am now pregnant too (kind of figured it wouldn't matter as likely to be cancelled) and would be 15 weeks by the time we go.
I'm in a real quandary on what to do.
- Do we keep trying to contact and move the holiday to next summer (not an issue re. Baby, happy to take or leave with grandparents if need be)?
- Do we wait and see if Greece continues to have no entry for Brits as I think they will which cancels and we get a refund?
- Do we go on holiday if it is still on? I have to admit, I would quite like to still go if things are deemed safe. We are all low risk (hubby working in retail, been working throughout with no issue). I just will be disappointed if our experience is affected and we dont get what we paid for e.g. pool use, AI dining, entertainment etc. Or the Greeks see us Brits as diseased with our high rates!! Then also, if we go, do we need to inform insurance of me being pregnant? I just got the one with the holiday package.
So tricky and wish they would just cancel the holidays now. It surely cannot go ahead?!
